Subject: [PATCH 6/8] cfq-iosched: put cooperating queue at the front of service tree
Date: Mon,  8 Oct 2012 17:44:58 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1349732700-2694-7-git-send-email-vgoyal@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1349732700-2694-1-git-send-email-vgoyal@redhat.com>

Currently during select_queue(), if a cfqq runs out of requests, cfq
checks if there is a cooperating queue doing IO nearby. If yes, it
lets that queue run out of turn.

But while doing so, CFQ does not put that queue at the front of service
tree and select it. It just forces it to be active queue.

This will not play very nice with new algorithm where we keep track
of min_vdisktime on service tree and always select first queue on
the service tree to run.

So instead of force setting active queue, put desired cooperating
queue at the front of service tree (like preemption), and then
go through get_next_cfqq() to select first queue on service tree.

So end result still remains the same, just that this method will
play better with new algorithm.
