From 05e90283561648301e30232fe0c91bd345ceba03 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Valente Date: Wed, 20 Dec 2017 12:38:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] block, bfq: add missing rq_pos_tree update on rq removal If two processes do I/O close to each other, then BFQ merges the bfq_queues associated with these processes, to get a more sequential I/O, and thus a higher throughput. In this respect, to detect whether two processes are doing I/O close to each other, BFQ keeps a list of the head-of-line I/O requests of all active bfq_queues. The list is ordered by initial sectors, and implemented through a red-black tree (rq_pos_tree). Unfortunately, the update of the rq_pos_tree was incomplete, because the tree was not updated on the removal of the head-of-line I/O request of a bfq_queue, in case the queue did not remain empty. This commit adds the missing update.
