* It'd be great if how cgroup support is achieved is better
documented.
* How's writeback handled?
* After all patches are applied, both CONFIG_BFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED and
CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED exist.
* The default weight and weight range don't seem to follow the defined
interface on the v2 hierarchy. The default value should be 100.
* With all patches applied, booting triggers a RCU context warning.
Please build with lockdep and RCU debugging turned on and fix the
issue.
* I was testing on the v2 hierarchy with two top-level cgroups one
hosting sequential workload and the other completely random. While
they eventually converged to a reasonable state, starting up the
sequential workload while the random workload was running was
extremely slow. It crawled for quite a while.
* And "echo 100 > io.weight" hung the writing process.
Thanks.
