From f392ba889b019602976082bfe7bf486c2594f85c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kiyoshi Ueda Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2009 10:12:28 +0100 Subject: dm mpath: add service time load balancer This patch adds a service time oriented dynamic load balancer, dm-service-time, which selects the path with the shortest estimated service time for the incoming I/O. The service time is estimated by dividing the in-flight I/O size by a performance value of each path. The performance value can be given as a table argument at the table loading time. If no performance value is given, all paths are considered equal.
