Thanks for the patch I will likely have time to test this sometime next week. But just to be sure - the expected behavior would be that processes writing to dm-based devices would experience the fair-shair scheduling of CFQ (provided that the physical devices that back those DM devices use CFQ), correct? -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
