ocfs2: fdatasync should skip unimportant metadata writeout
In ocfs2, fdatasync and fsync are identical. I think fdatasync should skip committing transaction when inode->i_state is set just I_DIRTY_SYNC and this indicates only atime or/and mtime updates. Following patch improves fdatasync throughput. #sysbench --num-threads=16 --max-requests=300000 --test=fileio --file-block-size=4K --file-total-size=16G --file-test-mode=rndwr --file-fsync-mode=fdatasync run Results: -2.6.30-rc8 Test execution summary: total time: 107.1445s total number of events: 119559 total time taken by event execution: 116.1050 per-request statistics: min: 0.0000s avg: 0.0010s max: 0.1220s approx. 95 percentile: 0.0016s Threads fairness: events (avg/stddev): 7472.4375/303.60 execution time (avg/stddev): 7.2566/0.64 -2.6.30-rc8-patched Test execution summary: total time: 86.8529s total number of events: 300016 total time taken by event execution: 24.3077 per-request statistics: min: 0.0000s avg: 0.0001s max: 0.0336s approx. 95 percentile: 0.0001s Threads fairness: events (avg/stddev): 18751.0000/718.75 execution time (avg/stddev): 1.5192/0.05 Signed-off-by: NHisashi Hifumi <hifumi.hisashi@oss.ntt.co.jp> Acked-by: NMark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NJoel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
