    dm: improve performance by moving dm_io structure to per-bio-data · 64f52b0e
    Mike Snitzer 提交于
    Eliminates need for a separate mempool to allocate 'struct dm_io'
    objects from.  As such, it saves an extra mempool allocation for each
    original bio that DM core is issued.
    
    This complicates the per-bio-data accessor functions by needing to
    conditonally add extra padding to get to a target's per-bio-data.  But
    in the end this provides a decent performance improvement for all
    bio-based DM devices.
    
    On an NVMe-loop based testbed to a ramdisk (~3100 MB/s): bio-based
    DM linear performance improved by 2% (went from 2665 to 2777 MB/s).
