Subject: Linux I/O stack design question
Date: Thu, 01 Sep 2011 14:33:38 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1314880418.11001.6.camel@werner-t410> (raw)

Dear fio users and developers,

I have a question regarding the Linux I/O stack (not directly regarding
fio, but I think fio user's and developers have a lot of knowledge
here):

I'm trying to better understand the different layers of the Linux I/O
stack and how they play together. So I have started a diagram showing
the different layers of the I/O stack:
http://www.thomas-krenn.com/de/wikiDE/images/0/07/Linux-IO-Stack.png

Is this diagram correct or are there any errors in there?

Any feedback is welcome.

Thanks in advance,
Werner
