Erm ... *what* I/O scheduler? These I/O requests may go directly to the end of the hardware I/O queue, which already has an I/O model where each request can correspond directly to a KIOCB. And which does not include any synchronous primitives. No such scheduler has previously been, or _should_ be, required. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
