Subject: [PATCH 14/18] drbd: explicitly submit meta data requests with REQ_NOIDLE
Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2014 17:53:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1404143587-24344-15-git-send-email-philipp.reisner@linbit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1404143587-24344-1-git-send-email-philipp.reisner@linbit.com>

From: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@linbit.com>

For some reason we have assumed NOIDLE was implied
by one of the other flags we set. It is not (anymore?).
Explicitly set REQ_NOIDLE for synchronous meta data updates,
or we can seriously starve random writes when using CFQ.
