Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: use percpu_read_positive instead of sum_positive for need_preempt
Date: Wed, 24 Mar 2021 09:44:21 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <d500e1b1337e9b36e6dc7ade4e9fad36931c44f4.1616593448.git.josef@toxicpanda.com> (raw)

Looking at perf data for a fio workload I noticed that we were spending
a pretty large chunk of time (around 5%) doing percpu_counter_sum() in
need_preemptive_reclaim.  This is silly, as we only want to know if we
have more ordered than delalloc to see if we should be counting the
delayed items in our threshold calculation.  Change this to
percpu_read_positive() to avoid the overhead.

I ran this through fsperf to validate the changes, obviously the latency
numbers in dbench and fio are quite jittery, so take them as you wish,
but overall the improvements on throughput, iops, and bw are all
positive.  Each test was run two times, the given value is the average
of both runs for their respective column.
