Large streaming reads make for large bios, which means each entry on the list async work queues represents a large amount of data. IO congestion throttling on the device was kicking in before the async worker threads decided a single thread was busy and needed some help. The end result was that a streaming read would result in a single CPU running at 100% instead of balancing the work off to other CPUs. This patch also changes the pre-IO checksum lookup done by reads to work on a per-bio basis instead of a per-page. This results in many extra btree lookups on large streaming reads. Doing the checksum lookup right before bio submit allows us to reuse searches while processing adjacent offsets. Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

When kthread_run() returns failure, this worker hasn't been added to the list, so btrfs_stop_workers() won't free it. Signed-off-by: NLi Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

This changes the worker thread pool to maintain a list of idle threads, avoiding a complex search for a good thread to wake up. Threads have two states: idle - we try to reuse the last thread used in hopes of improving the batching ratios busy - each time a new work item is added to a busy task, the task is rotated to the end of the line.

Btrfs has been using workqueues to spread the checksumming load across other CPUs in the system. But, workqueues only schedule work on the same CPU that queued the work, giving them a limited benefit for systems with higher CPU counts. This code adds a generic facility to schedule work with pools of kthreads, and changes the bio submission code to queue bios up. The queueing is important to make sure large numbers of procs on the system don't turn streaming workloads into random workloads by sending IO down concurrently. The end result of all of this is much higher performance (and CPU usage) when doing checksumming on large machines. Two worker pools are created, one for writes and one for endio processing. The two could deadlock if we tried to service both from a single pool. Signed-off-by: NChris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
