Hi Fengguang or Xiaolong,
any chance to add this thread to a lkp run? I've played around with
Dave's simplied xfs_io run, and while the end result for 1k block
size looks pretty similar in terms of execution time and throughput
the profiles look much better. For 512 byte or 1 byte tests the
tests completes a lot faster too.
Here is the perf report output for a 1k block size run, the first
item directly related to the block mapping shows up is
xfs_file_iomap_begin_delay at .75%. Although I'm a bit worried
up up_/down_read showing up so much. While we take a ilock and
iolock a lot they should be mostly uncontended for such a single
threaded write, so the overhead seems a bit worrisome.
(FYI, the tree this was tested on also has the mark_page_accessed
and pagefault_disable fixes applied)
