[PATCH 12/24] cfq-iosched: implement cfq_group->nr_active and ->children_weight

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Fri Dec 28 2012 - 15:38:22 EST


To prepare for blkcg hierarchy support, add cfqg->nr_active and
->children_weight. cfqg->nr_active counts the number of active cfqgs
at the cfqg's level and ->children_weight is sum of weights of those
cfqgs. The level covers itself (cfqg->leaf_weight) and immediate
children.

The two values are updated when a cfqg enters and leaves the group
service tree. Unless the hierarchy is very deep, the added overhead
should be negligible.

Currently, the parent is determined using cfqg_flat_parent() which
makes the root cfqg the parent of all other cfqgs. This is to make
the transition to hierarchy-aware scheduling gradual. Scheduling
logic will be converted to use cfqg->children_weight without actually
changing the behavior. When everything is ready,
blkcg_weight_parent() will be replaced with proper parent function.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior chagne.

v2: s/cfqg->level_weight/cfqg->children_weight/ as per Vivek.
