Subject: wrong in_flight diskstat in 2.6.16.1
Date: Tue, 23 May 2006 10:52:50 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4472CD62.5060906@cdi.cz> (raw)

Hello,

I see weird output from /sys/block/sd{a,b}/stat on our AMD64-X2 smp 
machine with HT1000 (Broadcom) SATA with 2 WD 250GB HDDs in MD raid1. AS 
scheduler was used, change to noop didn't change anything. It is vanilla 
2.6.16.1 and here are absolute values in hex and one second differences 
below:

  8: -3
  9: 1000

As you can see in_flight is constantly negative and it is DECREASING 
slowly all the time.
I can't find any reason for it :-\
