Maybe something like: Notice: blkiotune is effective only when the host kernel uses the 'cfq' I/O elevator for the disk. I like the idea of the patch, but am not sure that I know enough about kernel internals to state whether your wording or my alternative is good enough at getting the point across correctly to someone else not very familiar with kernel concepts. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
