[RFC PATCH v1 14/18] sched: add new fields to task_struct

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

 



Add two new fields to the task_struct to support async
write throttling.

  - One field to store how long writes are throttled: bdp_pause
  - The other field to store the number of dirtied pages:
    bdp_nr_dirtied_pause
