Hi Gui,
Noticed few things during testing.
1. Writing 0 as weight is not removing the policy for me, if I swich the
IO scheduler on the device.
- echo "/dev/sdb:500:2" > io.policy
- Change elevator on device /sdb
- echo "/dev/sdb:0:2" > io.policy
- cat io.policy
The old rule is not gone away.
2. One can add same rule twice after chaning elevator.
- echo "/dev/sdb:500:2" > io.policy
- Change elevator on device /sdb
- echo "/dev/sdb:500:2" > io.policy
- cat io.policy
Same rule appears twice
3. If one writes to io.weight, it should not update the weight for a
device if there is a rule for the device already. For example, if a
cgroup got io.weight=1000 and later i set the weight on /dev/sdb to
500 and then change the io.weight=200, it should not be udpated for
for groups on /dev/sdb. Why?, because I think it will make more sense
to keep the simple rule that as long there is a rule for device, it
always overrides the generic settings of io.weight.
4. Wrong rule should return invalid value instead we see oops.
