[1/1] Block device throttling [Re: Distributed storage.]

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

 



This throttling mechanism allows to limit maximum amount of queued bios 
per physical device. By default it is turned off and old block layer 
behaviour with unlimited number of bios is used. When turned on (queue
limit is set to something different than -1U via blk_set_queue_limit()),
generic_make_request() will sleep until there is room in the queue.
number of bios is increased in generic_make_request() and reduced either
in bio_endio(), when bio is completely processed (bi_size is zero), and
recharged from original queue when new device is assigned to bio via
blk_set_bdev(). All oerations are not atomic, since we do not care about
precise number of bios, but a fact, that we are close or close enough to
the limit.

Tested on distributed storage device - with limit of 2 bios it works
slow :)
