Abstract:
Techniques perform I/O management. The techniques involve: in response to receiving an I/O request for a redundant array of independent disks (RAID), placing the I/O request in a corresponding waiting queue based on a stripe related to the I/O request in the RAID; and in response to the I/O request being granted to process, executing the I/O request based on storage of data of the stripe in a cache memory. Accordingly, by using the cache mechanism for the stripes, the I/O processing efficiency is improved and the user experience is enhanced. Moreover, the count of access to the RAID is reduced, the bandwidth for the backend access is saved and the system performance is improved.
