hello everyone,

i have some questions about cfq,could you give me some help?thanks!

codes:
cfq_service_tree_add:rb_key = cfq_slice_offset(cfqd, cfqq) + jiffies;

my questions as blew:

1,why use max_slice - cfqq_slice to dertermine offset in service tree, how the offset guarantee cfqqs' fairness whithin the servicetree?

2,why we add jiffies?

thanks again.ÿôèº{.nÇ+‰·Ÿ®‰­†+%ŠËÿ±éݶ\x17¥Šwÿº{.nÇ+‰·¥Š{±þG«éÿŠ{ayº\x1dʇڙë,j\a­¢f£¢·hšïêÿ‘êçz_è®\x03(­éšŽŠÝ¢j"ú\x1a¶^[m§ÿÿ¾\a«þG«éÿ¢¸?™¨è­Ú&£ø§~á¶iO•æ¬z·švØ^\x14\x04\x1a¶^[m§ÿÿÃ\fÿ¶ìÿ¢¸?–I¥
