2017-04-20bfq: fix compile error if CONFIG_CGROUPS=nJens Axboe1-3/+2
If we don't have CGROUPS enabled, the compile ends in the following misery: In file included from ../block/bfq-iosched.c:105:0: ../block/bfq-iosched.h:819:22: error: array type has incomplete element type extern struct cftype bfq_blkcg_legacy_files[]; ^ ../block/bfq-iosched.h:820:22: error: array type has incomplete element type extern struct cftype bfq_blkg_files[]; ^ Move the declarations under the right ifdef.

2017-04-19block, bfq: split bfq-iosched.c into multiple source filesPaolo Valente1-0/+942
The BFQ I/O scheduler features an optimal fair-queuing (proportional-share) scheduling algorithm, enriched with several mechanisms to boost throughput and reduce latency for interactive and real-time applications. This makes BFQ a large and complex piece of code. This commit addresses this issue by splitting BFQ into three main, independent components, and by moving each component into a separate source file: 1. Main algorithm: handles the interaction with the kernel, and decides which requests to dispatch; it uses the following two further components to achieve its goals. 2. Scheduling engine (Hierarchical B-WF2Q+ scheduling algorithm): computes the schedule, using weights and budgets provided by the above component. 3. cgroups support: handles group operations (creation, destruction, move, ...).
