v1: - Drop the RFC tag. - Update to use bio_segments accordingly as __bio_segments is removed. - Remove if (!bio) since bio_clone_fast with bioset and GFP_NOFS will never fail.
This attempts to use bio_clone_fast() in the places where we clone bio, such as when bio got cloned for multiple disks and when bio got split during dio submit. One benefit is to simplify dio submit to avoid calling bio_add_page one by one. Another benefit is that comparing to bio_clone_bioset, bio_clone_fast is faster because of copying the vector pointer directly, and bio_clone_fast doesn't modify bi_vcnt, so the extra work is to fix up bi_vcnt usage we currently have to use bi_iter to iterate bvec. Here are some numbers collected with the script [1], note that most of performance tests usually issue bs=4k dio write/read so our directIO split code is not tested as it requires bs > stripe_len(64K), thus I made this simple script which writes 2G with bs=128K. - vanilla: real 0m10.265s user 0m0.005s sys 0m9.164s - patched: real 0m8.973s user 0m0.006s sys 0m7.804s [1]: #!/bin/bash M=/mnt/btrfs D1=/dev/pmem0p1 D2=/dev/pmem0p2 umount $M mkfs.btrfs -f $D1 $D2 >/dev/null || exit mount $D1 $M -onodatasum || exit xfs_io -f -c "falloc 0 2G" $M/foo time xfs_io -d -c "pwrite -b 128K 0 2G" $M/foo Liu Bo (8): Btrfs: use bio_clone_fast to clone our bio Btrfs: new helper btrfs_bio_clone_partial Btrfs: use bio_clone_bioset_partial to simplify DIO submit Btrfs: change how we iterate bios in endio Btrfs: record error if one block has failed to retry Btrfs: make check-integrity use bvec_iter Btrfs: unify naming of btrfs_io_bio Btrfs: hardcode GFP_NOFS for btrfs_bio_clone_partial fs/btrfs/check-integrity.c | 27 +++--- fs/btrfs/extent_io.c | 20 ++++- fs/btrfs/extent_io.h | 1 + fs/btrfs/file-item.c | 31 ++++--- fs/btrfs/inode.c | 204 ++++++++++++++++++++------------------------- fs/btrfs/volumes.h | 1 + 6 files changed, 142 insertions(+), 142 deletions(-) -- 2.9.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
