Hi Kiyoshi/Alasdair, Just a thought. As we are changing __choose_pgpath parameters in this patch, will it be good to use BIO rather than nr_bytes as parameter? Availability of BIO in loadbalancing interface can provide more flexibility for coming up with new load balancing in future. Thanks, Vijay -----Original Message----- From: dm-devel-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:dm-devel-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Kiyoshi Ueda Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2009 12:40 PM To: device-mapper development Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/2] dm-mpath: interface change for preparation This patch changes path selector interfaces for service-time oriented dynamic load balancer. To calculate the service time for an incoming I/O correctly, the load balancer needs the size of the incoming I/O when selecting the next path.
