Meta's resource control demo project[0] includes a benchmark tool that can
be used to calculate the best iocost solutions for a given SSD.
[0]: https://github.com/facebookexperimental/resctl-demo
A project[1] has now been started to create a publicly available database
of results that can be used to apply them automatically.

This change adds a new tool that gets triggered by a udev rule for any
block device and queries the hwdb for known solutions. The format for
the hwdb file that is currently generated by the github action looks like
this:
# This file was auto-generated on Tue, 23 Aug 2022 13:03:57 +0000.

The IOCOST_SOLUTIONS key lists the solutions available for that device
in the preferred order for higher isolation, which is a reasonable
default for most client systems. This can be overriden to choose better
defaults for custom use cases, like the various data center workloads.
The tool can also be used to query the known solutions for a specific
device or to apply a non-default solution (say, isolation or bandwidth).

Isolation allows the system to remain responsive in face of high I/O load.

Which solutions are available for a device can be queried from the udev metadata attached to it. By

default the naive solution is used, which provides the most bandwidth.</para>
