      xfs: reduce debug overhead of dir leaf/node checks · 1fea323f
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      On debug kernels, we call xfs_dir3_leaf_check_int() multiple times
      on every directory modification. The robust hash ordering checks it
      does on every entry in the leaf on every call results in a massive
      CPU overhead which slows down debug kernels by a large amount.
      
      We use xfs_dir3_leaf_check_int() for the verifiers as well, so we
      can't just gut the function to reduce overhead. What we can do,
      however, is reduce the work it does when it is called from the
      debug interfaces, just leaving the high level checks in place and
      leaving the robust validation to the verifiers. This means the debug
      checks will catch gross errors, but subtle bugs might not be caught
      until a verifier is run.
      
      It is easy enough to restore the existing debug behaviour if the
      developer needs it (just change a call parameter in the debug code),
      but overwise the overhead makes testing large directory block sizes
      on debug kernels very slow.
      
      Profile at an unlink rate of ~80k file/s on a 64k block size
      filesystem before the patch:
      
        40.30%  [kernel]  [k] xfs_dir3_leaf_check_int
        10.98%  [kernel]  [k] __xfs_dir3_data_check
         8.10%  [kernel]  [k] xfs_verify_dir_ino
         4.42%  [kernel]  [k] memcpy
         2.22%  [kernel]  [k] xfs_dir2_data_get_ftype
         1.52%  [kernel]  [k] do_raw_spin_lock
      
      Profile after, at an unlink rate of ~125k files/s (+50% improvement)
      has largely dropped the leaf verification debug overhead out of the
      profile.
      
        16.53%  [kernel]  [k] __xfs_dir3_data_check
        12.53%  [kernel]  [k] xfs_verify_dir_ino
         7.97%  [kernel]  [k] memcpy
         3.36%  [kernel]  [k] xfs_dir2_data_get_ftype
         2.86%  [kernel]  [k] __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath
      
      Create shows a similar change in profile and a +25% improvement in
      performance.
