[PATCH] blk-mq: allow hardware queue to get more tag while sharing a tag set

[PATCH] blk-mq: allow hardware queue to get more tag while sharing a tag set

[Yu Kuai]

If there are multiple active queues while sharing a tag set, it's not
necessary to limit the available tags as same share for each active queue
if no one ever failed to get driver tag. And fall back to same share if
someone do failed to get driver tag.

This modification will be beneficial if total queue_depth of disks
on the same host is less than total tags.

Sorry this should be "more than", I'll correct this in next iteration
if anyone think this patch is acceptable.

This patch adds new atomic operations in the hot path and hence probably
has a negative performance impact. What is the performance impact of
this patch for e.g. null_blk when submitting I/O from all CPU cores?

Thanks,

Bart.

Hi, Bart

I run a test on both null_blk and nvme, results show that there are no
performance degradation:

test platform: x86
test cpu: 2 nodes, total 72
test scheduler: none
test device: null_blk / nvme

test cmd: fio -filename=/dev/xxx -name=test -ioengine=libaio -direct=1
-numjobs=72 -iodepth=16 -bs=4k -rw=write -offset_increment=1G
-cpus_allowed=0:71 -cpus_allowed_policy=split -group_reporting
-runtime=120

test results: iops
1) null_blk before this patch: 280k
2) null_blk after this patch: 282k
3) nvme before this patch: 378k
4) nvme after this patch: 384k

Please use io_uring for performance tests.

The null_blk numbers seem way too low to me. If I run a null_blk 
performance test inside a VM with 6 CPU cores (Xeon W-2135 CPU) I see 
about 6 million IOPS for synchronous I/O and about 4.4 million IOPS when 
using libaio. The options I used and that are not in the above command 
line are: --thread --gtod_reduce=1 --ioscheduler=none.

Thanks,

Bart.

Hi, Bart

The cpu I'm testing is Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6140 CPU @ 2.30GHz, and
after switching to io_uring with "--thread --gtod_reduce=1
--ioscheduler=none", the numbers can increase to 330k, yet still
far behind 6000k.

The new atomic operations in the hot path is atomic_read() from
hctx_may_queue(), and the atomic variable will change in two
situations:

a. fail to get driver tag with dbusy not set, increase and set dbusy.
b. if dbusy is set when queue switch from busy to dile, decrease and
clear dbusy.

During the period a device "idle -> busy -> idle", the new atomic
variable can be writen twice at most, which means this is almost
readonly in the above test situation. So I guess the impact on
performance is minimal ?

Thanks!
Kuai

On 
https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/120485/intel-xeon-gold-6140-processor-24-75m-cache-2-30-ghz.html 
I found the following information about that CPU:
18 CPU cores
36 hyperthreads

so 36 fio jobs should be sufficient. Maybe IOPS are lower than expected 
because of how null_blk has been configured? This is the configuration 
that I used in my test:

modprobe null_blk nr_devices=0 &&
     udevadm settle &&
     cd /sys/kernel/config/nullb &&
     mkdir nullb0 &&
     cd nullb0 &&
     echo 0 > completion_nsec &&
     echo 512 > blocksize &&
     echo 0 > home_node &&
     echo 0 > irqmode &&
     echo 1024 > size &&
     echo 0 > memory_backed &&
     echo 2 > queue_mode &&
     echo 1 > power ||
     exit $?

Please measure the performance impact of your patch.

hi Bart,

After applying this configuration, the number of null_blk in my
machine is about 650k(330k before). Is this still too low?

By the way, there are no performance degradation.

That seems low to me. If I run the attached script on a six year old
desktop with an eight core i7-4790 CPU it reports a little more than 5
million IOPS. Has kernel debugging perhaps been enabled in the kernel on
the test setup? Or is the system perhaps slowed down by security
mitigations?

> By the way, there are no performance degradation.

Please wait with drawing a conclusion until you can run a workload on
your setup of several million IOPS.

Thanks,

Bart.

Hi, Bart

Sorry for the delay. I was too busy with other things recently.

After disable all the kernel debuging config I can think of, the
numbers can increase to millions.

setup cmd:
modprobe null_blk nr_devices=0 &&
     udevadm settle &&
     cd /sys/kernel/config/nullb &&
     mkdir nullb0 &&
     cd nullb0 &&
     echo 0 > completion_nsec &&
     echo 512 > blocksize &&
     echo 0 > home_node &&
     echo 0 > irqmode &&
     echo 1024 > size &&
     echo 0 > memory_backed &&
     echo 2 > queue_mode &&
     echo 1 > power ||
     exit $?

test cmd:
fio -filename=/dev/nullb0 -name=test -ioengine=io_uring -direct=1
-numjobs=32 -iodepth=32 -bs=4k -rw=write -group_reporting -runtime=30
--thread --gtod_reduce=1 --ioscheduler=none -time_based

test result:
| test round | with this patch | without this patch |
| ---------- | --------------- | ------------------ |
| 1          | 4310k           | 4265k              |

| 4          | 4355k           | 4236k              |

Hi Kuai,

Thank you for having taken the time to rerun the IOPS measurements with
kernel debugging disabled. According to my calculations the standard
deviation (50K) is larger than the difference between the averages
(19K). Unfortunately that makes it hard to draw any conclusion ...

Bart.
