[PATCH] cifs: use the least loaded channel for sending requests

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

 



Hi Steve,

Below is a patch for a new channel allocation strategy that we've been
discussing for some time now. It uses the least loaded channel to send
requests as compared to the simple round robin. This will help
especially in cases where the server is not consuming requests at the
same rate across the channels.

I've put the changes behind a config option that has a default value of true.
This way, we have an option to switch to the current default of round
robin when needed.

Please review.
