- Implement logic for detecting cooperating processes, so we
choose the best available queue whenever possible.
- Improve residual slice time accounting.
- Remove dead code: we no longer see async requests coming in on
sync queues. That part was removed a long time ago. That means
that we can also remove the difference between cfq_cfqq_sync()
and cfq_cfqq_class_sync(), they are now indentical. And we can
kill the on_dispatch array, just make it a counter.
- Allow a process to go into the current list, if it hasn't been
serviced in this scheduler tick yet.
Possible future improvements including caching the cfqq lookup
in cfq_close_cooperator(), so we don't have to look it up twice.
cfq_get_best_queue() should just use that last decision instead
of doing it again.
