* [PATCH] lib/raid6: fix abnormally high latency @ 2021-12-14 3:15 Yajun Deng 2021-12-14 17:27 ` Song Liu 2021-12-15 2:14 ` yajun.deng 0 siblings, 2 replies; 12+ messages in thread From: Yajun Deng @ 2021-12-14 3:15 UTC (permalink / raw) To: stockhausen, song; +Cc: linux-kernel, linux-rt-users, linux-raid, Yajun Deng We found an abnormally high latency when executing modprobe raid6_pq, the latency is greater than 1.2s when CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y, greater than 67ms when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, and greater than 16ms when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y. This is caused by disable the preemption, this time is too long and unreasonable. We just need to disable migration. so used migrate_disable()/ migrate_enable() instead of preempt_disable()/preempt_enable(). This is beneficial for CONFIG_PREEMPT=y or CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y, but no effect for CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y.

From the result, I think the CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y and the CONFIG_PREEMPT=y cases failed to preempt during the preempt enabled period in raid6_choose_gen(). Is this expected? OTOH, the 16ms latency with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y is more or less expected. Is this acceptable? If not, is 1ms latency acceptable?

I think allowing preempt may still affect the speed comparison. But such discrepancy should be acceptable. I will apply this to md-next.

This could eventually result with people starting to report 'sometimes the storage does not perform' or 'random high CPU usage on some boots' kind of issues. We should not touch this.

As you can see, the latency is not a little higher, but too much higher, it seems unreasonable, I think this may be a bug. We are using the 5.10 kernel and it would be very convenient for us if that was done. > Thanks, > Song ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread

So again, this result is perfectly expected. The benchmarks can be preempted in between the individual measurements with preemptible kernel configuration. > CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y,CONFIG_HZ_1000=y > T: 6 ( 2561) P:95 I:1000 C: 25284 Min: 3 Act: 3 Avg: 4 Max: 16593 16 jiffies by 1000 Hz is 16 ms. Ditto. So far so good. The thing is the preemption disabled region is introduced here precisely to guard the performance measurements and it cannot be removed. The purpose is to ensure the measurements are protected from external noise and hence the results are reliable and the best performing implementation can be selected. Changing it to migrate disable is incorrect. You can as well just remove it completely as with preemption enabled (migrate disable does not disable preemption) the benchmarks can be flawed with external noise and the results are not reliable anymore. In other words, the latency is desired here by design. Removing the preemption disabled region is a BUG. But really the main thing here is your test scenario is plain wrong. It's a common misunderstanding that you should never see high latency spikes. Sometimes you really should. There is an extended set of operations which should be strictly avoided (with regards to latency applications). Loading kernel modules is one example of them. It is not considered a latency safe operation and hence it is not allowed in production environment! The application (or operator/the system configuration) should ensure all the necessary modules are preloaded in setup phase before the application workload is executed. Ie. before you start the cyclictest. For example here, all the raid related modules *should* be loaded on system boot. So that the initialization does not interfere with the running production application.

Ditto. So far so good. Thanks for the explanation. I misread/misunderstood some of these results. I dropped the patch from md-next. Song ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread
