    jbd2: improve jbd2 fsync batching · e07f7183
    Josef Bacik 提交于
    This patch removes the static sleep time in favor of a more self
    optimizing approach where we measure the average amount of time it
    takes to commit a transaction to disk and the ammount of time a
    transaction has been running.  If somebody does a sync write or an
    fsync() traditionally we would sleep for 1 jiffies, which depending on
    the value of HZ could be a significant amount of time compared to how
    long it takes to commit a transaction to the underlying storage.  With
    this patch instead of sleeping for a jiffie, we check to see if the
    amount of time this transaction has been running is less than the
    average commit time, and if it is we sleep for the delta using
    schedule_hrtimeout to give us a higher precision sleep time.  This
    greatly benefits high end storage where you could end up sleeping for
    longer than it takes to commit the transaction and therefore sitting
    idle instead of allowing the transaction to be committed by keeping
    the sleep time to a minimum so you are sure to always be doing
    something.
