btrfs: increase direct io read size limit to 256 sectors
Btrfs currently limits direct I/O reads to a single sector, which goes back to commit c329861d ("Btrfs: don't allocate a separate csums array for direct reads") from Josef. That commit changes the direct I/O code to ".. use the private part of the io_tree for our csums.", but ten years later that isn't how checksums for direct reads work, instead they use a csums allocation on a per-btrfs_dio_private basis (which have their own performance problem for small I/O, but that will be addressed later). There is no fundamental limit in btrfs itself to limit the I/O size except for the size of the checksum array that scales linearly with the number of sectors in an I/O. Pick a somewhat arbitrary limit of 256 limits, which matches what the buffered reads typically see as the upper limit as the limit for direct I/O as well. This significantly improves direct read performance. For example a fio run doing 1 MiB aio reads with a queue depth of 1 roughly triples the throughput: Baseline: READ: bw=65.3MiB/s (68.5MB/s), 65.3MiB/s-65.3MiB/s (68.5MB/s-68.5MB/s), io=19.1GiB (20.6GB), run=300013-300013msec With this patch: READ: bw=196MiB/s (206MB/s), 196MiB/s-196MiB/s (206MB/s-206MB/s), io=57.5GiB (61.7GB), run=300006-300006msc Reviewed-by: NQu Wenruo <wqu@suse.com> Reviewed-by: NNikolay Borisov <nborisov@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NChristoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: NDavid Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
