2 * fs/ioprio.c
4 * Copyright (C) 2004 Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
6 * Helper functions for setting/querying io priorities of processes. The
7 * system calls closely mimmick getpriority/setpriority, see the man page for
8 * those. The prio argument is a composite of prio class and prio data, where
9 * the data argument has meaning within that class. The standard scheduling
10 * classes have 8 distinct prio levels, with 0 being the highest prio and 7
11 * being the lowest.
13 * IOW, setting BE scheduling class with prio 2 is done ala:
15 * unsigned int prio = (IOPRIO_CLASS_BE << IOPRIO_CLASS_SHIFT) | 2;
17 * ioprio_set(PRIO_PROCESS, pid, prio);
19 * See also Documentation/block/ioprio.txt
