      direct-io: only inc/dec inode->i_dio_count for file systems · fe0f07d0
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      do_blockdev_direct_IO() increments and decrements the inode
      ->i_dio_count for each IO operation. It does this to protect against
      truncate of a file. Block devices don't need this sort of protection.
      
      For a capable multiqueue setup, this atomic int is the only shared
      state between applications accessing the device for O_DIRECT, and it
      presents a scaling wall for that. In my testing, as much as 30% of
      system time is spent incrementing and decrementing this value. A mixed
      read/write workload improved from ~2.5M IOPS to ~9.6M IOPS, with
      better latencies too. Before:
      
      clat percentiles (usec):
       |  1.00th=[   33],  5.00th=[   34], 10.00th=[   34], 20.00th=[   34],
       | 30.00th=[   34], 40.00th=[   34], 50.00th=[   35], 60.00th=[   35],
       | 70.00th=[   35], 80.00th=[   35], 90.00th=[   37], 95.00th=[   80],
       | 99.00th=[   98], 99.50th=[  151], 99.90th=[  155], 99.95th=[  155],
       | 99.99th=[  165]
      
      After:
      
      clat percentiles (usec):
       |  1.00th=[   95],  5.00th=[  108], 10.00th=[  129], 20.00th=[  149],
       | 30.00th=[  155], 40.00th=[  161], 50.00th=[  167], 60.00th=[  171],
       | 70.00th=[  177], 80.00th=[  185], 90.00th=[  201], 95.00th=[  270],
       | 99.00th=[  390], 99.50th=[  398], 99.90th=[  418], 99.95th=[  422],
       | 99.99th=[  438]
      
      In other setups, Robert Elliott reported seeing good performance
      improvements:
      
      https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/3/557
      
      The more applications accessing the device, the worse it gets.
      
      Add a new direct-io flags, DIO_SKIP_DIO_COUNT, which tells
      do_blockdev_direct_IO() that it need not worry about incrementing
      or decrementing the inode i_dio_count for this caller.

      fs/9p: fix readdir() · 8e3c5005
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Al Viro's IOV changes broke 9p readdir() because the new code
      didn't abort the read when it returned nothing. The original
      code checked if the combined error/length was <= 0 but in the
      new code that accidentally got changed to just an error check.
      
      Add back the return from the function when nothing is read.
