Subject[PATCH 0/5] dm-rq: improve sequential I/O performance
Date
Hi,

This 1st one patch removes one log message which can be triggered
very easily.

The 2nd patch removes the workaround of blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue()
in case of requeue, this way isn't necessary, and more worse, it
makes BLK_MQ_S_SCHED_RESTART not working, and degarde I/O performance.

The 3rd patch return DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE to dm-rq if underlying request
allocation fails, then we can return BLK_STS_RESOURCE from dm-rq
to blk-mq, so that blk-mq can hold the requests to be dequeued.

The 4th patch is a pre-patch for the 5th one, becasue even though
underlying request allocation succeeds, its queue may be
busy and we can get this feedback from blk_insert_cloned_request()
now. This patch trys to cache the allocated request so that
it may be reused in next dispatch to underlying queue.

The 5th patch improves sequential I/O performance by returning
STS_RESOURCE if underlying queue is busy.

In the commit log of the 5th patch, I/O IOPS data is provided and
we can see sequential I/O performance is improved a lot with this
patchset.

This patchset depends on the following two patchset:

[1] [PATCH V5 0/7] blk-mq-sched: improve sequential I/O performance(part 1)

https://marc.info/?l=linux-block&m=150676854821077&w=2

[2] [PATCH V5 0/8] blk-mq: improve bio merge for none scheduler

https://marc.info/?l=linux-block&m=150677085521416&w=2

Any comments are welcome!

Thanks,
Ming
