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
