4 * Copyright (C) 2000 Andrea Arcangeli <andrea@suse.de> SuSE
6 * 30042000 Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de> :
8 * Split the elevator a bit so that it is possible to choose a different
9 * one or even write a new "plug in". There are three pieces:
10 * - elevator_fn, inserts a new request in the queue list
11 * - elevator_merge_fn, decides whether a new buffer can be merged with
13 * - elevator_dequeue_fn, called when a request is taken off the active list
15 * 20082000 Dave Jones <davej@suse.de> :
16 * Removed tests for max-bomb-segments, which was breaking elvtune
17 * when run without -bN
20 * - Rework again to work with bio instead of buffer_heads
21 * - loose bi_dev comparisons, partition handling is right now
22 * - completely modularize elevator setup and teardown
