Hi everyone, These patchsets are the new releases of dm-ioband and bio-cgroup which are ported to 2.6.27-rc5-mm1. 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 the same block device. A job is a group of processes with the same pid or pgrp or uid or a virtual machine such as KVM or Xen. A

Hi everyone, This series of patches of dm-ioband now includes "The bio tracking mechanism," which has been posted individually to this mailing list. This makes it easy for anybody to control the I/O bandwidth even when the I/O is one of delayed-write requests. Have fun! This series of patches consists of two parts: 1. dm-ioband Dm-ioband is an I/O bandwidth controller implemented

Hi all, These are new releases of dm-ioband and blkio-cgroup. The major change of these releases is that a hierarchical configuration is supported, a parent cgroup's bandwidth is distributed to its children. The hierarchical configuration is available when using dm-ioband and blkio-cgroup together. Please refer to the documentation included in this series of patches on how to use it. The
