Hi Jens
blk-rq-qos is a standalone framework out of io-sched and can be used to
control or observe the IO progress in block-layer with hooks. blk-rq-qos
is a great design but right now, it is totally fixed and built-in and shut
out peoples who want to use it with external module.
This patchset attempts to make blk-rq-qos framework pluggable and modular.
Then we can update the blk-rq-qos policy module w/o stopping the IO workload.
And it is more convenient to introduce new policy on old machines w/o udgrade
kernel. And we can close all of the blk-rq-qos policy if we needn't any of
them. At the moment, the request_queue.rqos list is empty, we needn't to
waste cpu cyles on them.
Changes since v2:
Refactor the patches,
- patch01 only provide new interfaces and not export the sysfs interface.
- patch02 adapt the wbt to new interface, reserve the previous action
when write to wbt_lat
- export sysfs interface in last patch when all of the blk-rqos policies
are preprared well.
Changes since v1:
- Just make iocost and iolatency pluggable, then we needn't to export
those interfaces
- Remove the iostat rqos policy
- Rename module of blk-ioprio to io-prio to avoid rename ioprio.c file
WangJianchao(6):
blk: prepare to make blk-rq-qos pluggable and modular
blk-wbt: make wbt pluggable
blk-iolatency: make iolatency pluggable
blk-iocost: make iocost pluggable
blk-ioprio: make ioprio pluggable and modular
blk: export the sysfs for switching qos
