cfq-iosched: Implment IOPS mode for group scheduling
Vivek Goyal wrote: o Implement another CFQ mode where we charge group in terms of number of requests dispatched instead of measuring the time. Measuring in terms of time is not possible when we are driving deeper queue depths and there are requests from multiple cfq queues in the request queue. ... 27 Jul 2010 09:30

[PATCH 3/7] padata: Pass the padata cpumasks to the cpumask_change_notifier chain
We pass a pointer to the new padata cpumasks to the cpumask_change_notifier chain. So users can access the cpumasks without the need of an extra padata_get_cpumask function.

[PATCH 0/7] padata/pcrypt: cleanups
This patchset contains the following changes: 1. padata - Rename padata_alloc functions to not export underlined functions. 2. padata - Rearrange set_cpumask functions to have proper locking for all these functions and to avoid to export underlined functions. 3. padata - Pass the padata cpumasks to the cpumas... 27 Jul 2010 01:55

[PATCH 1/7] padata: Rename padata_alloc functions
We rename padata_alloc to padata_alloc_possible because this function allocates a padata_instance and uses the cpu_possible mask for parallel and serial workers. Also we rename __padata_alloc to padata_alloc to avoid to export underlined functions. Underlined functions are considered to be private to padata. Users ... 27 Jul 2010 01:55

[PATCH 5/7] crypto: pcrypt - Update pcrypt cpumask according to the padata cpumask notifier
The padata cpumask change notifier passes a padata_cpumask to the notifier chain. So we use this cpumask instead of asking padata for the cpumask.

[PATCH 2/7] padata: Rearrange set_cpumask functions
padata_set_cpumask needs to be protected by a lock. We make __padata_set_cpumasks unlocked and static. So this function can be used by the exported and locked padata_set_cpumask and padata_set_cpumasks functions.

[PATCH 6/7] padata: Remove padata_get_cpumask
A function that copies the padata cpumasks to a user buffer is a bit error prone. The cpumask can change any time so we can't be sure to have the right cpumask when using this function. A user who is interested in the padata cpumasks should register to the padata cpumask notifier chain instead. Users of padata_get... 27 Jul 2010 01:55
