Hi, Ryo TsurutaHi Ryo Tsuruta,
And our test team want to test bio_tracking as your benchmark reports,
so would you please send me your test codes? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Zumeng

This is the dm-ioband version 1.8.0 release.
Dm-ioband is an I/O bandwidth controller implemented as a device-mapper
driver, which gives specified bandwidth to each job running on the same
physical device.
This release is a minor bug fix and confirmed running on the latest
stable kernel 2.6.27.1.
- Can be applied to the kernel 2.6.27.1 and 2.6.27-rc5-mm1.
- Changes from 1.7.0 (posted on Oct 3, 2008):
- Fix a minor bug in io_limit setting that causes dm-ioband to stop
issuing I/O requests when a large value is set to io_limit.
Alasdair, could you please review this patch and give me any comments?
Thanks,
Ryo Tsuruta
