| |
This patch enables reader optimistic spinning for inodes that are under a DAX-based mount point.
On a 4-socket Haswell machine running on a 4.7-rc1 tip-based kernel, the fio test with multithreaded randrw and randwrite tests on the same file on a XFS partition on top of a NVDIMM with DAX were run, the aggregated bandwidths before and after the patch were as follows:
Test BW before patch BW after patch % change ---- --------------- -------------- -------- randrw 1352 MB/s 2164 MB/s +60% randwrite 1710 MB/s 2550 MB/s +49%
