The classic error injection mechanism, should_fail_request() does not support use cases where more information is required (from the entire struct bio, for example). To that end, this patch introduces should_fail_bio(), which calls should_fail_request() under the hood but provides a convenient place for kprobes to hook into if they require the entire struct bio. This patch also replaces some existing calls to should_fail_request() with should_fail_bio() with no degradation in performance.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
