Commit Message

Mikulas Patocka Oct. 10, 2022, 12:37 p.m. UTC
This patch reduces lock contention in btree walks. We modify the
functions init_ro_wpin, exit_ro_spine and ro_step so that they use
dm_bufio_lock_read/dm_bufio_get_unlocked/dm_bufio_unlock_read. If
dm_bm_fast_get_block fails, we fallback to normal locking.

When doing tests on pmem and fully provisioned thin volume, it improves
thoughput from 286MiB/s to 442MiB/s.

fio --ioengine=psync --iodepth=1 --rw=randrw --bs=4k --direct=1 --numjobs=12 --time_based --runtime=10 --group_reporting --name=/dev/vg/thin
before:
READ: bw=286MiB/s
WRITE: bw=286MiB/s
after:
READ: bw=442MiB/s
WRITE: bw=442MiB/s
