From 4cf5d043709bfe73b4553272706cb5beb8072301 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Valente Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2015 13:39:12 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] block: cgroups, kconfig, build bits for BFQ-v7r11-4.6.0 Update Kconfig.iosched and do the related Makefile changes to include kernel configuration options for BFQ. Also increase the number of policies supported by the blkio controller so that BFQ can add its own.
