Hopefully I will be able to use the vv kernel.  |
nice  I`m waiting for 2.6.10-rc4 ( bk13 today ) to do next vv_e release
I wad done bonnie++ tests again on my machine :
AMD Athlon 1.0 , 256 MB Ram, HDD ST3120026A , VIA KT133
kernels : 2.6.9-nitro4, 2.6.10-rc3-vv_e1 , 2.6.10-rc3-vvmm_e1
every test has 2 repeations ( to see randomization of latencies,reiser4 especially) t1 - first repeat , t2 - second repeat.
so it`s easy to see that results of first and second test for the same kernel can be much different hehe
selected I/O Scheduler in all kernels : Deadline
results here : text formated with Opera7.60p4

OK , I take a look and going to add them to the next release.
btw.
Orinoco is in 2.6.10-rc3-vvmm_e1 already via USE="orinoco"
Can You give some links,pointers to the 2 ohters ?
I think that with patching by hand ( 2610rc3vvmm_e1_orinoco.diff.bz2 from 2.6.10-rc3-vvmm_e1 at sourceforge.net vivid page ) will be no problems with 2.6.10-rc3-vv_e1 also.
cheers

| hey Fallow , possibly an ignorant question but how are you setting the scheduler... elevator=cfq say on the kernel line doesnt seem to be working for me... i only see that the various schedulers are registered but in dmesg there isnt a specific reference to one being used like in 2.6.9-nitro4 |

Try this:
cat /sys/block/hda/queue/scheduler
It should present you with a list of schedulers, the one inside [] is the one being used right now. You can change it by for example echo cfq > scheduler afaik. Be careful though, I managed to crash my system once with 2.6.10-rc1 when I changed it all the time
btw, about that patch comment, sorry, I can't code at all :/ Anyway, don't make the staircase an option if it's just me wanting it, in the end it's good that there are different patchsets and I respect your point about the O(1) scheduler. |

yes as Vrln said , since 2.6.10-rc1 with switchable and modular io schedulers there are no "using xxx scheduler" msg in dmesg.
Only : | Code: |
io scheduler noop registered
io scheduler anticipatory registered
io scheduler deadline registered
io scheduler cfq registered |
is absolutely correct.
actual io scheduler for device You can set and check via /sys/block/_DEVICE_/queue/scheduler. for ex | Code: |
Enterprise queue # cd /sys/block/hda/queue
Enterprise queue # cat scheduler
noop anticipatory deadline [cfq]
Enterprise queue # echo deadline > scheduler
Enterprise queue # cat scheduler
noop anticipatory [deadline] cfq |
default io scheduler You can set via vivid_e menu from (menu)config
| Code: |
x x Default IO scheduler (Deadline io scheduler) ---> x x
|
or via elevator=name in bootparams.
that`s all

Yes it`s a fact , is no reason to make a copy of other/different patchset with the same stuff.
But via Con`s plugsched it would be not so complicated as I think based on mm . May be a little more complicated to "port" plugsched to non-mm based kernel but I will take a look in the near future . Syncing plugsched to latest mm byc Con is also an option for vvmm.
But highest prior is to have good working next vv release
cheers

Well, I'm back again. I finally got everything worked out. Turns out it was partially the way I had the video drivers set up and mostly because entrance decided to die on me.
Anyways, I finally got around to building myself a new kernel a few days ago--after I was sure I had all the bugs in my system worked out. So far I haven't had any problems, crashes, blips or schedular issues (using CFQ). I like the patch set, and I really like the extra menu option in the menuconfig. Very handy. Good work!
I do, however, have one question, I got a brand new WD1600JB drive today (sata), and I was considering formatting it in reiser4. However, I couldn't seem to find the kernel option to enable support. My impression from the patch listings was that it was in the latest non-mm release. But darned if I can find it. Is it actually there? Or did I screw something up? |

great & nice
yes in the latest non-mm release : vv_e1 reiser4 is from mm , in vvmm_e1 based on full mm reiser4 is in mm , so is not in the patchlist of release.
I also have all partitions in reiser4 , so it`s "must be" for me
of course I`m going to do next 2.6.10 release at the near next days.
cheers

| Well, I still can't find it. Something must have happened when I compiled the kernel source. Anyways, I might well wait till the next release since I'm going out of town for a few days tomorrow. I'll play with reiser4 when I get back. Happy holidays. |

I've found the link for hostap http://hostap.epitest.fi/ and also I've found kernel with orinoco,hostap,ipw2100 in it https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=1893385&highlight=#1893385, but unfortunately...loook like this project is dead...but I am not really sure.
If you put those patches in your next 2.6.10 kernel,I'd like to try in my two laptops.

not dead, just on stand-by while waiting for xiphux to get a new computer (my patchset is based on xiphux's xx-sources)

Under kernel hacking in menuconfig, make sure 4K stacks are off. Then reiser4 should appear. hih - B |

Ah, excellent. That did make the option appear. Thanks.
I do have a question though. I've always had 4k stacks on, will it change anything having them off? (In other words, I have no idea what they do but I always thought they were good to have.)
I just got back in town about 20 minutes ago after a near 6 hour drive, so I'll play with this tomorrow. |

An interesting article. A little more research gave me the impression that it really won't affect performace either unless it's on a server. So I guess there's no reaosn not to use 8k stacks so I can use reiser4.
On an side note though, it does appear that you can use reiser4 with 4k stacks. None of the posts give much information, but if I happen to find something conclusive I'll post it. (The biggest find I made was something from another kernel-source thread https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=272784 where they bring up a patch that isn't really a patch. It's about halfway down.) Tomorrow I may look into it more. |

hello
I`m going to the Hospital for a several days, so I do not have time to do a release at now.I started work today but I don`t have time to finish it.
I will do of course new release when I back to home.
so,maybe You have some requests/ideas for new release
Everything are welcome

I felt like accomplishing something before school starts tomorrow. So I wrote a little script to do the scheduler changes--not that it is really needed. It's still rough, but it works. If anyone has any thoughts on what might actually make it useful, let me know.
------------------------------------------------------------
New highly improved version of the script below. It now features a command line arguement block device selector, and a command line arguement scheduler selector with partial matching.
It is also available at http://genn.sitesled.com/files/scripts/scheduler_change_script
| Code: | #!/bin/bash
###***Authored by Genn***###
##E-Mail: TheWindRider@myrealbox.com
#Last Update: 1/21/05
#This script was created to change the currently used scheduler
#under the vivid-sources kernel.
#(http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=1337010, maintained
#by fallow and _troll_) There are probably other kernels that
#could use this script as well, but I'm not aware of them.
#This script must be executable. If it does not work,
#'chmod 700 *this_script*' should do it. It also
#requires root access. The script will inform you of this
#if you run it as a normal user.
#You can supply one optional arguement with this script.
#'script_name block-device' will run the script with the
#intend to interactively change the scheduler on the
#block device you specify. The block device is just the
#last portion of the device address without slashes.
#IE, if you wanted to adjust the schedular on /dev/hda,
#you would run 'this_script hda' and follow the on-screen
#instructions.
#Now, I say the arguement is optional because you are
#requred to set the DEFAULT_DRIVE variable to a valid block
#device. So, if you do not supply the arguement, the script
#will use that block-device. The variable is set by the
#same rules that the arguement is supplied by; just use the
#last portion of the address with no slashes.
#You can now add a second command line arguement to change
#the scheduler non-interactively. Itt is required that
#you specify the drive on the command line as well though.
#'scheduler_change_script cfq' will fail.
#'schedular_change_script hda cfq' will work.
#You can still just specify the drive on the command line
#and change the schedular from the list.
#This is the all important variable.
DEFAULT_DRIVE=hdb
#Now you've done everything you need to, go run the script,
#and ignore everything from here down.

hello
Thanks for every good word from Everyone
It`s serious - skin cancer , but as I hope everything is going to the right/good way.I`m waiting for the HP result after last operation.
I`m returned to home. I feeling "good" and going to make new vivid release in next few days.
I see that is some news - genetics algorytms extensions for zapchod scheduler and some of io schedulers , but is not so good for destkop in current state of development and current cpu speeds (imho of course).
btw. also , the sched script is nice 
cheers

I'm sorry to hear that it's skin cancer. I wish you the best of luck with it, and I hope things turn out well.
I'm also looking forward to this next release. It's been at least 2 weeks since I rebuild my kernel.
And thanks for the comment on the script...it's not overly useful, but it did the job of making me feel productive. |

Looks to be a nice set of patches. I noticed to included the genetic algorythm extension to the schedular. I thought it was going to be omitted. What caused you to change your mind?
I'll probably compile it tonight or tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes. |
