Subject: CFQ: add think time check for service tree
Currently when the last queue of a service tree has no request, we don't
expire the queue to hope request from the service tree comes soon, so the
service tree doesn't miss its share. But if the think time is big, the
assumption isn't correct and we just waste bandwidth. In such case, we
don't do idle.

I think instead of a macro, a inline function to check this will be better.
Also you don't have to pass slice_idle value as parameter as funciton
can directly access it from cfqd.

I think by now cfqq is already on the service tree and cfqq->service_tree
should be set. So we should be able to just acess that instead of calling
service_tree_for().
I have noticed that cfqq might be queued on one service tree but we can
change the idling on queue and cfqq_type() can return a different value
and different service tree. So trying to avoid use of service_tree_for()
when cfqq is already on a service tree should be good.

Thanks for your time.
this one might not have service tree set because a queue might already
send out all its requests.
other suggested changes are made. Here is the updated patch.
Subject: CFQ: add think time check for service tree
Currently when the last queue of a service tree has no request, we don't
expire the queue to hope request from the service tree comes soon, so the
service tree doesn't miss its share. But if the think time is big, the
assumption isn't correct and we just waste bandwidth. In such case, we
don't do idle.

Because we are not idling, throughput of randread workload has gone down.
Can you make sure it does not go down in case of launching firefox in
the presence of buffered writers. I want to make sure we got thinktime
logic right and we don't end up not idling even when thinktimes are
low.

I think we could do.
if (cfq_cfqq_on_rr(cfqq)
service_tree = cfqq->service_tree;
else
service_tree = service_tree_for();

I tried think time 2ms and no think time. But the test result isn't
quite stable, I can't completely make sure there is no difference. Most
time the test result is similar but sometimes there is relatively big
diverge with/without my patch.

ok.
Subject: CFQ: add think time check for service tree
Currently when the last queue of a service tree has no request, we don't
expire the queue to hope request from the service tree comes soon, so the
service tree doesn't miss its share. But if the think time is big, the
assumption isn't correct and we just waste bandwidth. In such case, we
don't do idle.

A slightly better
To check if the patch changes behavior of queue without think time. I also
tried to give test1 2ms think time or no think time. The test has variation
even without the patch, but the average throughput doesn't change with/without
the patch.
