Hi,

I want to play with BFQ.

My base is block-next as of 28-Apr-2017.

Not sure if the attached patches make sense (right now).

No, it doesn't make sense at all.

Hmm, I looked at 4.11.0-v8r11 and 0001 has exactly what my 2 patches do :-).

BFQ started as a conventional scheduler. But because mq is the way of
the future it was ported before it was accepted into mainline.

I am still playing and want to do my own experiences with BFQ.

Not sure if FIO is a good testcase-tool here.

So if MQ is the way why isn't the Kconfig called CONFIG_MQ_IOSCHED_BFQ
according to CONFIG_MQ_IOSCHED_DEADLINE?

Good point. The current naming is confusing.

Also:
# cat /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler
mq-deadline [kyber] bfq none

These should all be prefixed with mq-.

The logic here, as proposed by Jens, is not to add the mq tag when
there is no risk of ambiguity (such as between deadline and
mq-deadline). I'm open to any sensible choice.

The naming is confusing but I can understand the point of Jens.

The Kconfigs of BFQ in block/Kconfig.iosched need a move (see my two
patches attached in the initial posting).
AFAICS you have the same in your latest BFQ-patchset for Linux v4.11.y.

I am re-attaching my two patches.
