Subject: [PATCH 00/18] IO-less dirty throttling v11
Date: Sun, 04 Sep 2011 09:53:05 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110904015305.367445271@intel.com> (raw)
Hi,
Finally, the complete IO-less balance_dirty_pages(). NFS is observed to perform
better or worse depending on the memory size. Otherwise the added patches can
address all known regressions.
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wfg/writeback.git dirty-throttling-v11
(to be updated; currently it contains a pre-release v11)
Changes since v10:
- complete the renames
- add protections for IO queue underrun
- pause time reduction
- bdi reserve area
- bdi underrun flag
- more accurate task dirty accounting for
- sub-page writes
- FS re-dirties
- short lived tasks
Changes since v9:
- a lot of renames and comment/changelog rework, again
- seperate out the dirty_ratelimit update policy (as patch 04)
- add think time compensation
- add 3 trace events
Changes since v8:
- a lot of renames and comment/changelog rework
- use 3rd order polynomial as the global control line (Peter)
- stabilize dirty_ratelimit by decreasing update step size on small errors
- limit per-CPU dirtied pages to avoid dirty pages run away on 1k+ tasks (Peter)
Thanks a lot to Peter, Vivek, Andrea and Jan for the careful reviews!
