Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] bcache: writeback rate shouldn't artifically clamp
Date: Mon, 9 Oct 2017 00:37:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171009073730.8939-2-mlyle@lyle.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171009073730.8939-1-mlyle@lyle.org>
The previous code artificially limited writeback rate to 1000000
blocks/second (NSEC_PER_MSEC), which is a rate that can be met on fast
hardware. The rate limiting code works fine (though with decreased
precision) up to 3 orders of magnitude faster, so use NSEC_PER_SEC.
Additionally, ensure that uint32_t is used as a type for rate throughout
the rate management so that type checking/clamp_t can work properly.
bch_next_delay should be rewritten for increased precision and better
handling of high rates and long sleep periods, but this is adequate for
now.
