Here is an upstream pull request related to the topic of this bug: "Add Balance ionice idle priority" https://github.com/kdave/btrfsmaintenance/pull/66
I expect there will be a request for data that shows the existing method is buggy and isn't working properly, but I could be wrong. More generally I wonder if the idle class might not be working properly on some btrfs systems using the new block-mq, but that's a kernel thing. Wolfgang, when you have a couple minutes of free time would you please provide the information requested in the reply previous to this one? Kind regards, Nicholas
