From: Tao Cui <[email protected]> Add a second example cost model which replaces the builtin single-cursor sequentiality heuristic with a per-cgroup table of stream slots keyed by iocg_id: an IO is sequential iff its sector matches the expected next sector of any tracked stream. Interleaved sequential readers in one cgroup keep their own slots instead of ping-ponging a single cursor, and random IO inside a hot window rarely matches a moving expectation.
Measured (QEMU, virtio-blk with the HDD profile, 4k IOs, w=1000): two sequential readers in one cgroup are priced 2064us/op by the builtin model (judged random) and 23us/op by this model (judged sequential), a throughput recovery from 7.2 to 511 MiB/s; random IO inside an 8M window is priced 22.9us/op by builtin (undercharge) and 2643us/op by this model; single-stream sequential and whole-disk random pricing are unchanged. The runner reuses the switch helper from the first example model.
