Would there be any interest in having a rc.d/ script? I would find it
conveniant to specify a single rc.conf line and get scheduling for all my
devices. PC-BSD might find such functionality useful.
See attached for my first draft at such a script, I'm willing to hash it
into shape.
it would surely be useful but try to keep it simple and user-driven
(this is a general comment on rc.d scripts).
Some things i think you should simplify in your script:
- remove support for guessing which devices should get the scheduler.
This is really a user decision and if the user names no devices then
i believe it is better/safer not to install any scheduler.
I agree but I do think there is a case for an 'ALL' command as the user may
want scheduling on newly attached devices without knowning their device names
(i.e. attached USB storage devices).
I would also like to add a ``gsched_nodev'' that allows one to use 'ALL'
without having to apply gsched to everything.
See attached for a devd.conf file that add supports for that.
- use standard names such as gsched_flags or gsched_flags_${dev} to hold
generic and specific flags for the insert command.
It is neither useful nor flexible to have the script insert '-a'
in front of the algorithm;
I've changed the variable names. See attached for the rc.d script.
@Miroslav: thanks for the tip
