Hi,

i am experimenting with iolimits on a virtio block device and found a lock condition.
My plan was to monitor IOPS and/or bandwidth and kick a limit in if a vServer is exhausting
these limits too much.
However, it seems that if a limit is defined while the defined limit is exceeded no further I/O
is processed.

Maybe this is sth similar like
	stream: fix ratelimiting corner case

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Peter

You have sent a fix for this?

Just double-checking that this email thread can be ignored in favor of
your patch.

I sent a fix, but Paolo suggested a different way to fix it. I am just testing it.
