[PATCH 0/4] Restore I/O priority support in the mq-deadline scheduler

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Jens,

This patch series includes the following changes:
- Fix request accounting by counting requeued requests once.
- Test correctness of the request accounting code by triggering a kernel
  warning from inside dd_exit_sched() if an inconsistency has been detected.
- Switch from per-CPU counters to individual counters.
- Restore I/O priority support in the mq-deadline scheduler. The performance
  measurements in the description of patch 4/4 show that the peformance
  regressions in the previous version of this patch have been fixed. This has
  been achieved by using 'jiffies' instead of ktime_get() and also by skipping
  the aging mechanism if all queued requests have the same I/O priority.

Please consider this patch series for kernel v5.16.

Thanks,

Bart.
