2009-12-04blkio: Implement dynamic io controlling policy registrationVivek Goyal1-4/+32
o One of the goals of block IO controller is that it should be able to support mulitple io control policies, some of which be operational at higher level in storage hierarchy. o To begin with, we had one io controlling policy implemented by CFQ, and I hard coded the CFQ functions called by blkio. This created issues when CFQ is compiled as module. o This patch implements a basic dynamic io controlling policy registration functionality in blkio. This is similar to elevator functionality where ioschedulers register the functions dynamically. o Now in future, when more IO controlling policies are implemented, these can dynakically register with block IO controller.

2009-12-04blkio: Export some symbols from blkio as its user CFQ can be a moduleVivek Goyal1-0/+22
o blkio controller is inside the kernel and cfq makes use of interfaces exported by blkio. CFQ can be a module too, hence export symbols used by CFQ. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

They should not be declared inside some other file that's not related to CFQ. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

o Propagate blkio cgroup weight updation to associated cfq groups. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-12-03blkio: Export disk time and sectors used by a group to user spaceVivek Goyal1-1/+63
o Export disk time and sector used by a group to user space through cgroup interface. o Also export a "dequeue" interface to cgroup which keeps track of how many a times a group was deleted from service tree. Helps in debugging. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2009-12-03blkio: Take care of cgroup deletion and cfq group reference countingVivek Goyal1-2/+64
o One can choose to change elevator or delete a cgroup. Implement group reference counting so that both elevator exit and cgroup deletion can take place gracefully.

2009-12-03blkio: Introduce blkio controller cgroup interfaceVivek Goyal1-0/+177
o This is basic implementation of blkio controller cgroup interface. This is the common interface visible to user space and should be used by different IO control policies as we implement those. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
