Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 1/2] blk-throttle: simplify logic by token bucket algorithm
Hi, Tejun, Vivek and Jens,
I did tests and you affirmed the idea, and Vivek said he'll review the
last version of the patch. But it seems he left blkio area more than
half year. What next should I do to make progress ?
