Okay, the yield counter goes away. :) > + * Sleep for delay_ns nanoseconds. > + * > + * If delay_ns is 0, yield if it has been SLICE_TIME > + * nanoseconds since the last yield. Otherwise, check > + * if we need to yield for a pause event. There are two meanings of yield here; one is just letting other events run, the other is forever. Can we rephrase it? Perhaps, since the check for pauses always holds (either directly via block_job_pause_point, or via block_job_sleep_ns's call), something like: /* Sleep for delay_ns nanoseconds, and check if the block jobs * was requested to pause. * * If delay_ns is 0, block_job_throttle will also yield momentarily * if it has been SLICE_TIME nanoseconds since the last yield, * letting the main loop run. */ And another question. After this series there is exactly one block_job_sleep_ns call (in block/mirror.c). Perhaps instead of block_job_throttle, you should refine block_job_sleep_ns? There are also two remaining calls to block_job_pause_point outside block_job_throttle and block_job_sleep_ns (which however might be unified according to the previous point). Perhaps they should become block_job_sleep_ns(job, 0), and block_job_pause_point can be made static?
