mainlining shenanigans
The default hard disk param sets latency targets at 50ms. As the default target percentiles are zero, these don't directly regulate vrate; however, they're still used to calculate the period length - 100ms in this case. This is excessively low. A SATA drive with QD32 saturated with random IOs can easily reach avg completion latency of several hundred msecs. A period duration which is substantially lower than avg completion latency can lead to wildly fluctuating vrate. Let's bump up the default latency targets to 250ms so that the period duration is sufficiently long. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
