Hi all,
For most the Rotational Latency Reducing algorithms (SATF-Shortest
Access Time First)
<www.hpl.hp.com/research/ssp/papers/HPL-CSP-91-7rev1.pdf> we need to
know the Disk Head Position. Is there an API to find this? Mostly this
kind of API stuff most be given by the disk device driver. So does the
Hard Disk Driver in Linux provide such an API?
Thanks for the information,
Libin Varghese.
