SUBMIT_BIO(9)                             Block Devices                             SUBMIT_BIO(9)



NAME
       submit_bio - submit a bio to the block device layer for I/O

SYNOPSIS
       blk_qc_t submit_bio(struct bio * bio);

ARGUMENTS
       bio
           The struct bio which describes the I/O

DESCRIPTION
       submit_bio is very similar in purpose to generic_make_request, and uses that function to
       do most of the work. Both are fairly rough interfaces; bio must be presetup and ready for
       I/O.
