Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] block, bfq: do not idle if only one cgroup is activated
Date: Wed, 13 Oct 2021 19:25:34 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211013112534.3073296-3-yukuai3@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211013112534.3073296-1-yukuai3@huawei.com>

If only one group is activated, there is no need to guarantee the
same share of the throughput of queues in the same group.

Test procedure:
run "fio -numjobs=1 -ioengine=psync -bs=4k -direct=1 -rw=randread..."
multiple times in the same cgroup.

Test result: total bandwidth(Mib/s)
| total jobs | before this patch | after this patch      |
| ---------- | ----------------- | --------------------- |
| 1          | 33.8              | 33.8                  |
| 2          | 33.8              | 65.4 (32.7 each job)  |
| 4          | 33.8              | 106.8 (26.7 each job) |
| 8          | 33.8              | 126.4 (15.8 each job) |

By the way, if I test with "fio -numjobs=1/2/4/8 ...", test result is
the same with or without this patch. This is because bfq_queue can
be merged in this situation.
