I spent last Saturday working on this too. This is the status of my
current patches, would be interesting to compare them. they're not very
well tested yet though.
They would obsoletes the old fix-pausing and the old elevator-lowlatency
(I was going to release a new tree today, but I delayed it so I fixed
uml today too first [tested with skas and w/o skas]).
those backout the rc7 interactivity changes (the only one that wasn't in
my tree was the add_wait_queue_exclusive, that IMHO would better stay
for scalability reasons).
Of course I would be very interested to know if those two patches (or
Chris's one, you also retained the exclusive wakeup) are still greatly
improved by removing the _exclusive weakups and going wake-all (in
theory they shouldn't).
Andrea
