[PATCH v4 00/18] Replace btrfs_workers with kernel workqueue based btrfs_workqueue

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add a new btrfs_workqueue_struct which use kernel workqueue to implement
most of the original btrfs_workers, to replace btrfs_workers.

With this patchset, redundant workqueue codes are replaced with kernel
workqueue infrastructure, which not only reduces the code size but also the
effort to maintain it.

The result from sysbench shows minor improvement on the following server:
CPU: two-way Xeon X5660
RAM: 4G 
HDD: SAS HDD, 150G total, 100G partition for btrfs test

Test result on default mount option:

Test result on "-o compress" mount option:

Changelog:
v1->v2:
  - Fix some workqueue flags.
v2->v3:
  - Add the thresholding mechanism to simulate the old behavior
  - Convert all the btrfs_workers to btrfs_workrqueue_struct.
  - Fix some potential deadlock when executed in IRQ handler.
v3->v4:
  - Change the ordered workqueue implement to fix the performance drop in 32K
    multi thread random write.
  - Change the high priority workqueue implement to get an independent high
    workqueue without starving problem.
  - Simplify the btrfs_alloc_workqueue parameters.
  - Coding style cleanup.
  - Remove the redundant "_struct" suffix.
