[PATCH v3 0/3] block/diskstats: more accurate io_ticks and optimization

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Tue Mar 24 2020 - 02:39:44 EST


Simplified estimation for io_ticks introduced in patch
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20181206164122.2166-5-snitzer@xxxxxxxxxx/
could be very inaccurate for request longer than jiffy (i.e. any HDD)

There is at least one another report about this:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20200324031942.GA3060@xxxxxxxxxx/
See detail in comment for first patch.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/155413438394.3201.15211440151043943989.stgit@buzz/
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/158314549775.1788.6529015932237292177.stgit@buzz/
v3:
* update documentation
* rebase to current linux-next
* fix compilation for CONFIG_SMP=n

Konstantin Khlebnikov (3):
block/diskstats: more accurate approximation of io_ticks for slow disks
block/diskstats: accumulate all per-cpu counters in one pass
block/diskstats: replace time_in_queue with sum of request times
