From ed1128c2d0c87e5ff49c40f5529f06bc35f4251b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Chinner Date: Sat, 23 Jan 2021 10:06:31 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] xfs: reduce exclusive locking on unaligned dio Attempt shared locking for unaligned DIO, but only if the the underlying extent is already allocated and in written state. On failure, retry with the existing exclusive locking. Test case is fio randrw of 512 byte IOs using AIO and an iodepth of 32 IOs. Vanilla: READ: bw=4560KiB/s (4670kB/s), 4560KiB/s-4560KiB/s (4670kB/s-4670kB/s), io=134MiB (140MB), run=30001-30001msec WRITE: bw=4567KiB/s (4676kB/s), 4567KiB/s-4567KiB/s (4676kB/s-4676kB/s), io=134MiB (140MB), run=30001-30001msec Patched: READ: bw=37.6MiB/s (39.4MB/s), 37.6MiB/s-37.6MiB/s (39.4MB/s-39.4MB/s), io=1127MiB (1182MB), run=30002-30002msec WRITE: bw=37.6MiB/s (39.4MB/s), 37.6MiB/s-37.6MiB/s (39.4MB/s-39.4MB/s), io=1128MiB (1183MB), run=30002-30002msec That's an improvement from ~18k IOPS to a ~150k IOPS, which is about the IOPS limit of the VM block device setup I'm testing on. 4kB block IO comparison: READ: bw=296MiB/s (310MB/s), 296MiB/s-296MiB/s (310MB/s-310MB/s), io=8868MiB (9299MB), run=30002-30002msec WRITE: bw=296MiB/s (310MB/s), 296MiB/s-296MiB/s (310MB/s-310MB/s), io=8878MiB (9309MB), run=30002-30002msec Which is ~150k IOPS, same as what the test gets for sub-block AIO+DIO writes with this patch.
