Hi all, This is a new release of blkio-cgroup v11. Changes: - The function cgroup_get_from_page() is added which determines to which cgroup a given page belongs. This function is introduced from Vivek's io-controller patch. Thanks Vivek. - Fix a type mismatch of the refcount of io_context. The refcount has been changed to atomic_long_t. This patch can be applied to 2.6.31-rc7. The list of the patches: [PATCH 1/8] blkio-cgroup-v11: Introduction [PATCH 2/8] blkio-cgroup-v11: The new page_cgroup framework [PATCH 3/8] blkio-cgroup-v11: Refactoring io-context initialization [PATCH 4/8] blkio-cgroup-v11: The body of blkio-cgroup [PATCH 5/8] blkio-cgroup-v11: Page tracking hooks [PATCH 6/8] blkio-cgroup-v11: The document of blkio-cgroup [PATCH 7/8] blkio-cgroup-v11: Add a cgroup support to dm-ioband [PATCH 8/8] blkio-cgroup-v11: The document of a cgroup support for dm-ioband About blkio-cgroup: blkio-cgroup is a block I/O tracking mechanism implemented on the cgroup memory subsystem. Using this feature the owners of any type of I/O can be determined. This allows dm-ioband to control block I/O bandwidth even when it is accepting delayed write requests. dm-ioband can find the cgroup of each request. It is also for possible that others working on I/O bandwidth throttling to use this functionality to control asynchronous I/O with a little enhancement. Please visit our website, all-in-one-patch and more information are available. Linux Block I/O Bandwidth Control Project http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ioband/ I'd like to get some feedbacks from the list. Any comments are appreciated.
