The existing bdrv_co_flush_to_disk implementation uses rbd_flush(),
which is sychronous and causes the main qemu thread to block until it
is complete. This results in unresponsiveness and extra latency for
the guest.
Fix this by using an asynchronous version of flush. This was added to
librbd with a special #define to indicate its presence, since it will
be backported to stable versions. Thus, there is no need to check the
version of librbd.
librbd is linked dynamically and the version on the build host isn't
necessarily the same as the version qemu is run with. So shouldn't this
better be a runtime check?
While we discuss runtime loading separately, would you mind taking this
patch as-is for now?
Hi Josh,
I'm happy with Patch v3 1/2. Does that work for you?
Only patch 1/2 would add dead code as .bdrv_aio_flush would never be
called. I think we should rather take v1 of the series then, with the
#ifdefs at build time.
Yes, that would be a problem with only v3 1/2. v2 of the original
series is fine, but v1 was accidentally missing a hunk. To be clear,
I think just http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/232489/ would be good.
Thanks,
Josh
