Re: [PATCH linux-2.6-block:master 03/05] blk: move last_merge handling into generic elevator code

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



03_blk_generic-last_merge-handling.patch

	Currently, both generic elevator code and specific ioscheds
        participate in the management and usage of last_merge.  This
        and the following patches move last_merge handling into
        generic elevator code.
