I have a request could you fold up all patches and make one consolidated patch available somewhere (makes it easier to test), may be a git tree? I did some quick tests with some io benchmarks and found in a simple scenario that the scheduler worked as expected, except that it took very long. I'll investigate further and revert back. -- Balbir -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
