IO Simulation

init_IO_simulation ()

gint        init_IO_simulation              (void);

initialices the IO simulation code.

IO_algorithm_event ()

gint        IO_algorithm_event              (io_request_t *request);

Insert a new request in the IO subsystem using the current algorith.

Mainly passes request over to the current algorithm and puts it the the queue of requested blocks.

get_IO_head_pos ()

gint        get_IO_head_pos                 (void);

get_IO_reading_queue ()

io_queue_t  get_IO_reading_queue            (void);

Get all pending requests as ordered by the current algoritym.

set_IO_reading_queue ()

void        set_IO_reading_queue            (io_queue_t new_reading);

Sets the request's "reading" queue.

This function should be called when ever the reading queue is modified by external means, even if the pointer to the queue is not changed.

get_IO_requested_queue ()

io_queue_t  get_IO_requested_queue          (void);

Get all pending requests in order of arrival.
