    Subject[PATCH RFC RESEND 08/14] block, bfq: improve responsiveness
    Date
    From: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@unimore.it>

    This patch introduces a simple heuristic to load applications quickly,
    and to perform the I/O requested by interactive applications just as
    quickly. To this purpose, both a newly-created queue and a queue
    associated with an interactive application (we explain in a moment how
    BFQ decides whether the associated application is interactive),
    receive the following three special treatments:

    1) The weight of the queue is raised.

    2) The queue unconditionally enjoys device idling when it empties; in
    fact, if the requests of a queue are sync, then performing device
    idling for the queue is a necessary condition to guarantee that the
    queue receives a fraction of the throughput proportional to its weight
    (see [1] for details).

    3) The device-idling timeout is larger for the queue. This reduces the
    probability that the queue is expired because its next request does
    not arrive in time.

    For brevity, we call just weight-raising the combination of these
    three preferential treatments. For a newly-created queue,
    weight-raising starts immediately and lasts for a time interval that:
    1) depends on the device speed and type (rotational or
    non-rotational), and 2) is equal to the time needed to load (start up)
    a large-size application on that device, with cold caches and with no
    additional workload.

    Finally, as for guaranteeing a fast execution to interactive,
    I/O-related tasks (such as opening a file), consider that any
    interactive application blocks and waits for user input both after
    starting up and after executing some task. After a while, the user may
    trigger new operations, after which the application stops again, and
    so on. Accordingly, the low-latency heuristic weight-raises again a
    queue in case it becomes backlogged after being idle for a
    sufficiently long (configurable) time. The weight-raising then lasts
    for the same time as for a just-created queue.

    According to our experiments, the combination of this low-latency
    heuristic and of the improvements described in patch 7 allows BFQ
    to guarantee a high application responsiveness.
