Subject: [PATCH 14/14] block/mq-deadline: Prioritize high-priority requests
Date: Tue, 8 Jun 2021 16:07:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210608230703.19510-15-bvanassche@acm.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210608230703.19510-1-bvanassche@acm.org>
While one or more requests with a certain I/O priority are pending, do not
dispatch lower priority requests. Dispatch lower priority requests anyway
after the "aging" time has expired.
This patch has been tested as follows:
modprobe scsi_debug ndelay=1000000 max_queue=16 &&
sd='' &&
while [ -z "$sd" ]; do
sd=/dev/$(basename /sys/bus/pseudo/drivers/scsi_debug/adapter*/host*/target*/*/block/*)
done &&
echo $((100*1000)) > /sys/block/$sd/queue/iosched/aging_expire &&
cd /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/ &&
echo $$ >cgroup.procs &&
echo 2 >blkio.prio.class &&
mkdir -p hipri &&
cd hipri &&
echo 1 >blkio.prio.class &&
{ max-iops -a1 -d32 -j1 -e mq-deadline $sd >& ~/low-pri.txt & } &&
echo $$ >cgroup.procs &&
max-iops -a1 -d32 -j1 -e mq-deadline $sd >& ~/hi-pri.txt
Result:
* 11000 IOPS for the high-priority job
* 400 IOPS for the low-priority job
If the aging expiry time is changed from 100s into 0, the IOPS results change
into 6712 and 6796 IOPS.
The max-iops script is a script that runs fio with the following arguments:
--bs=4K --gtod_reduce=1 --ioengine=libaio --ioscheduler=${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}
