Subject: What's in linux-2.6-block.git for 2.6.33
Hi,
Since 2.6.32 is released, here's a summary of what I have queued up for
2.6.33.
As a short executive summary service, these are the main items included
in the tree:
- Inclusion of the cgroup based blk-io controller. This is something
that has been pending for a long time.
- Inclusion of drbd.
- A cciss driver update from HP.
- A big round of CFQ updates, even outside of the blk io controller.
- libaio request batching, which should speed up O_DIRECT with libaio.
- A few writeback tweaks from Wu.
