Hi,
The following patches add the following 2 dynamic load balancers
to request-based dm-multipath:
o queue-length oriented dynamic load balancer, dm-queue-length.
o service-time oriented dynamic load balancer, dm-service-time.
This patch-set is not ready for inclusion to the upstream kernel,
but I'm posting now to hear comments from multipath related people.
Any comments are welcome.
This patch-set can be applied on top of 2.6.27-rc6 + Alasdair's
linux-next patches below + request-based dm patches(*).
dm-mpath-use-more-error-codes.patch
dm-mpath-remove-is_active-from-struct-dm_path.patch
(*) http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/12/100
Summary of the patch-set:
1/4: dm-mpath: add a path-selector interface
2/4: dm-mpath: add queue-length oriented dynamic load balancer (dlb)
3/4: dm-mpath: interface change for service-time oriented dlb
4/4: dm-mpath: add service-time oriented dynamic load balancer (dlb)
Thanks,
Kiyoshi Ueda
