It is this characteristic that can make the anticipatory scheduler perform anomalously with controllers supporting TCQ, or with hardware striped RAID devices. Setting the antic_expire -queue paramter (see below) to zero disables this behavior, and the anticipatory -scheduler behaves essentially like the deadline scheduler. +queue parameter (see below) to zero disables this behavior, and the +anticipatory scheduler behaves essentially like the deadline scheduler. When read anticipation is enabled (antic_expire is not zero), reads are dispatched to the disk controller one at a time. diff --git a/Documentation/block/barrier.txt b/Documentation/block/barrier.txt index de3d88e..a272c3d 100644 --- a/Documentation/block/barrier.txt +++ b/Documentation/block/barrier.txt @@ -42,7 +42,7 @@ iii.
