From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Shaohua Li Subject: [patch 1/3 v3] raid1: make sequential read detection per disk based Date: Mon, 02 Jul 2012 09:08:41 +0800 Message-ID: <20120702011025.079670656@kernel.org> References: <20120702010840.197370335@kernel.org> Return-path: Content-Disposition: inline; filename=raid1-seq-detection.patch Sender: linux-raid-owner@vger.kernel.org To: linux-raid@vger.kernel.org Cc: neilb@suse.de, axboe@kernel.dk List-Id: linux-raid.ids Currently the sequential read detection is global wide. It's natural to make it per disk based, which can improve the detection for concurrent multiple sequential reads. And next patch will make SSD read balance not use distance based algorithm, where this change help detect truly sequential read for SSD.
