[PATCH 2/2 v5] block/throttle: Add IO submitted information in blkio.throttle

From: Robin Dong
Date: Fri Nov 02 2012 - 05:31:44 EST


From: Robin Dong <sanbai@xxxxxxxxxx>

Currently, if the IO is throttled by io-throttle, the system admin has no idea
of the situation and can't report it to the real application user about that
he/she has to do something.

So this patch adds a new interface named blkio.throttle.io_submitted which
exposes the number of bios that have been sent into blk-throttle therefore the
user could calculate the difference from throttle.io_serviced to see how many
IOs are currently throttled.

v3 <-- v2:
- Use nr-queued[] of struct throtl_grp for stats instaed of adding new blkg_rwstat.

v4 <-- v3:
- Add two new blkg_rwstat arguments to count total bios be sent into blk_throttle.

v5 <-- v4:
- Change name "io_submit_bytes" to "io_submitted_bytes".
