Hi,
2.6.10-rc3-mm1 patch:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/axboe/patches/v2.6/2.6.10-rc3-mm1/cfq-time-slices-17-2.6.10-rc3-mm1.gz
2.6-BK patch:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/axboe/patches/v2.6/2.6.10-rc3/cfq-time-slices-17.gz
Changes:
- Kill the spare queue logic
- wait_request should not imply that queue must be allowed to allocate a
request, otherwise a write could quickly flood the queue. Add
must_alloc to handle that and make it one-shot.
- Turn on/off idle window based on process think time and seek time.
Improve idle timer logic. The seek/think time updates toggle the
idle_window flag and increase queuing depth if we disable the idle
window.
- Improve SCSI requeing logic. Add request fully back into cfq queue but
mark it as next service once this queue gets slice time again.
- More preemption fixes. Allow new sync io to preempt equal priority
async io to improve reader fairness.
