From 322cff70d46c6c230a722684fd65ae6b5f57436e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bart Van Assche Date: Mon, 27 Sep 2021 15:03:28 -0700 Subject: block/mq-deadline: Prioritize high-priority requests In addition to reverting commit 7b05bf771084 ("Revert "block/mq-deadline: Prioritize high-priority requests""), this patch uses 'jiffies' instead of ktime_get() in the code for aging lower priority requests. This patch has been tested as follows: Measured QD=1/jobs=1 IOPS for nullb with the mq-deadline scheduler. Result without and with this patch: 555 K IOPS. Measured QD=1/jobs=8 IOPS for nullb with the mq-deadline scheduler. Result without and with this patch: about 380 K IOPS. Ran the following script: set -e scriptdir=$(dirname "$0") if [ -e /sys/module/scsi_debug ]; then modprobe -r scsi_debug; fi modprobe scsi_debug ndelay=1000000 max_queue=16 sd='' while [ -z "$sd" ]; do sd=$(basename /sys/bus/pseudo/drivers/scsi_debug/adapter*/host*/target*/*/block/*) done echo $((100*1000)) > "/sys/block/$sd/queue/iosched/prio_aging_expire" if [ -e /sys/fs/cgroup/io.prio.class ]; then cd /sys/fs/cgroup echo restrict-to-be >io.prio.class echo +io > cgroup.subtree_control else cd /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/ echo restrict-to-be >blkio.prio.class fi echo $$ >cgroup.procs mkdir -p hipri cd hipri if [ -e io.prio.class ]; then echo none-to-rt >io.prio.class else echo none-to-rt >blkio.prio.class fi { "${scriptdir}/max-iops" -a1 -d32 -j1 -e mq-deadline "/dev/$sd" >& ~/low-pri.txt & } echo $$ >cgroup.procs "${scriptdir}/max-iops" -a1 -d32 -j1 -e mq-deadline "/dev/$sd" >& ~/hi-pri.txt Result: * 11000 IOPS for the high-priority job * 40 IOPS for the low-priority job If the prio aging expiry time is changed from 100s into 0, the IOPS results change into 6712 and 6796 IOPS. The max-iops script is a script that runs fio with the following arguments: --bs=4K --gtod_reduce=1 --ioengine=libaio --ioscheduler=${arg_e} --runtime=60 --norandommap --rw=read --thread --buffered=0 --numjobs=${arg_j} --iodepth=${arg_d} --iodepth_batch_submit=${arg_a} --iodepth_batch_complete=$((arg_d / 2)) --name=${positional_argument_1} --filename=${positional_argument_1} Cc: Damien Le Moal Cc: Niklas Cassel Cc: Hannes Reinecke Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche Reviewed-by: Damien Le Moal Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210927220328.1410161-5-bvanassche@acm.org [axboe: @latest -> @latest_start] Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe --- block/mq-deadline.c | 77 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 73 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) (limited to 'block/mq-deadline.c') diff --git a/block/mq-deadline.c b/block/mq-deadline.c index b262f40f32c0..2001ac186f5c 100644 --- a/block/mq-deadline.c +++ b/block/mq-deadline.c @@ -31,6 +31,11 @@ */ static const int read_expire = HZ / 2; /* max time before a read is submitted. */ static const int write_expire = 5 * HZ; /* ditto for writes, these limits are SOFT! */ +/* + * Time after which to dispatch lower priority requests even if higher + * priority requests are pending. + */ +static const int prio_aging_expire = 10 * HZ; static const int writes_starved = 2; /* max times reads can starve a write */ static const int fifo_batch = 16; /* # of sequential requests treated as one by the above parameters.
