Subject: [RESEND PATCH v7 4/4] vfs: Use per-cpu list for superblock's inode list
When many threads are trying to add or delete inode to or from
a superblock's s_inodes list, spinlock contention on the list can
become a performance bottleneck.
This patch changes the s_inodes field to become a per-cpu list with
per-cpu spinlocks. As a result, the following superblock inode list
(sb->s_inodes) iteration functions in vfs are also being modified:
1. iterate_bdevs()
2. drop_pagecache_sb()
3. wait_sb_inodes()
4. evict_inodes()
5. invalidate_inodes()
6. fsnotify_unmount_inodes()
7. add_dquot_ref()
8. remove_dquot_ref()
With an exit microbenchmark that creates a large number of threads,
attachs many inodes to them and then exits. The runtimes of that
microbenchmark with 1000 threads before and after the patch on a
4-socket Intel E7-4820 v3 system (40 cores, 80 threads) were as
follows:
Kernel Elapsed Time System Time
------ ------------ -----------
Vanilla 4.5-rc4 65.29s 82m14s
Patched 4.5-rc4 22.81s 23m03s
Before the patch, spinlock contention at the inode_sb_list_add()
function at the startup phase and the inode_sb_list_del() function at
the exit phase were about 79% and 93% of total CPU time respectively
(as measured by perf). After the patch, the percpu_list_add()
function consumed only about 0.04% of CPU time at startup phase. The
percpu_list_del() function consumed about 0.4% of CPU time at exit
phase. There were still some spinlock contention, but they happened
elsewhere.
