Hi everyone, This is a new release of dm-ioband and bio-cgroup. With this release, the overhead of bio-cgroup is significantly reduced and the accuracy of block I/O tracking is much improved. These patches are for 2.6.28-rc2-mm1. Enjoy it! dm-ioband ========= Dm-ioband is an I/O bandwidth controller implemented as a device-mapper driver, which gives specified bandwidth to each job running on

Hi all, These are new releases of dm-ioband and blkio-cgroup. The major changes of these releases are: - dm-ioband can be configured through the cgroup interface. The bandwidth can be assigned on a per cgroup per block device basis. - The event tracing is supported that helps in debugging and monitoring dm-ioband. - A document for blkio-cgroup is available at
