This patch adds the ability to pre-empt an ongoing BE timeslice when a RT request is waiting for the current timeslice to complete. This reduces the wait time to disk for RT requests from an upper bound of 4 (current value of cfq_quantum) to 1 disk request. Applied Jens' suggeested changes to avoid the rb lookup and use !cfq_class_rt() and retested. Latency(secs) for the RT task when doing sequential reads from 10G file. | only RT | RT + BE | RT + BE + this patch small (512 byte) reads | 143 | 163 | 145 large (1Mb) reads | 142 | 158 | 146 Signed-off-by: Divyesh Shah <dpshah@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
