Hi Jens,
IIUC, you are suggesting that all the blkiocg interfaces used by CFQ, pull
these out in a separate file say, blk-cgroup-iosched.c and build this
file only if CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED is enabled.
Two things come to mind.
- If CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED=n, then nothing much is left in blk-cgroup.c. IOW,
what good a blkio controller interface is without blk-cgroup-iosched.c
- More importantly, when a new policy is implemented, then it will force
building blk-cgroup-iosched.o (even if CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED=n) and then
we will be face the same issue that CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED=n but CFQ is
calling all the stat update functions and spin lock warning triggers.
If we create two binaries, one for cfq and for new policy, say
blk-cgroup-cfq.o and blk-cgroup-dm-ioband.o, that is also not a very
pleasant situation because many of the stats interface in these two
binaries are common and we will be unnecessary creating two binary
copies of same functions having different name.
cfq_blkiocg_update_completion_stats()
dm_ioband_blkiocg_update_completion_stats()
I am still trying to implement what you suggested. Breaking apart
blk-cgroup.c and blk-cgroup.h is making it ugly. In the mean time, I
would request you to reconsider the providing another wrapper approach
by implementing the "cfq.h".
I am attaching a patch for that approach. I have done some basic compile
testing on it. I can do more testing on it in case you decide to change your
mind.
Thanks
Vivek
