Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
I run make-kpkg as follows:
nice ionice -c3 /usr/src/amd64.sh where the script contains:
CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4 MAKEFLAGS="CC=gcc-4.9 LD=ld.gold CFLAGS=-march=athlon64" \
make-kpkg --config menuconfig --initrd linux-image
on a 4-core Athlon 64 machine with 8 GB of RAM.
during the stage:
LINK vmlinux
LD vmlinux.o
MODPOST vmlinux.o
GEN .version
CHK include/generated/compile.h
UPD include/generated/compile.h
CC init/version.o
LD init/built-in.o
KSYM .tmp_kallsyms1.o
KSYM .tmp_kallsyms2.o
LD vmlinux
SORTEX vmlinux
SYSMAP System.map
other processes using the same disk get I/O starved and pause (e.g. playing
a video file on the same disk).
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
* What was the outcome of this action?
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Is there anyway to get the kernel build process to take second place to
other I/O on the same disk and not starve other I/O on the same disk?
PS, I'm using:
io scheduler cfq registered (default)
