acpi-cpufreq: fix 'smp_call_function_many()' confusion

It turns out that 'smp_call_function_many()' doesn't work at all like
'smp_call_function_single()', and my change to Andrew's patch to use it
rather than a loop over all CPU's acpi-cpufreq doesn't work.

My bad.

'smp_call_function_many()' has two "features" (aka "documented bugs"):

 (a) it needs to be called with preemption disabled, because it uses
     smp_processor_id() without guarding the CPU lookup with 'get_cpu()'
     and 'put_cpu()' like the 'single' variant does.

 (b) even if the current CPU is part of the CPU mask, it won't do the
     call on that CPU.

Still, we're better off trying to use 'smp_call_function_many()' than
looping over CPU's, since it at least in theory allows us to use a
broadcast IPI and do it all in parallel.  So let's just work around the
silly semantic bugs in that function.

cfq-iosched: add close cooperator code

If we have processes that are working in close proximity to each
other on disk, we don't want to idle wait. Instead allow the close
process to issue a request, getting better aggregate bandwidth.
The anticipatory scheduler has similar checks, noop and deadline do
not need it since they don't care about process <-> io mappings.

The code for CFQ is a little more involved though, since we split
request queues into per-process contexts.

This fixes a performance problem with eg dump(8), since it uses
several processes in some silly attempt to speed IO up. Even if
dump(8) isn't really a valid case (it should be fixed by using
CLONE_IO), there are other cases where we see close processes
and where idling ends up hurting performance.

splice: remove i_mutex locking in splice_from_pipe()

splice_from_pipe() is only called from two places:

  - generic_splice_sendpage()
  - splice_write_null()

Neither of these require i_mutex to be taken on the destination inode.

15 years agosplice: split up __splice_from_pipe()
Miklos Szeredi [Tue, 14 Apr 2009 17:48:36 +0000 (19:48 +0200)]
splice: split up __splice_from_pipe()

Split up __splice_from_pipe() into four helper functions:

  splice_from_pipe_begin()
  splice_from_pipe_next()
  splice_from_pipe_feed()
  splice_from_pipe_end()

splice_from_pipe_next() will wait (if necessary) for more buffers to
be added to the pipe.  splice_from_pipe_feed() will feed the buffers
to the supplied actor and return when there's no more data available
(or if all of the requested data has been copied).

This is necessary so that implementations can do locking around the
non-waiting splice_from_pipe_feed().

This patch should not cause any change in behavior.

cfq-iosched: don't delay queue kick for a merged request

"Zhang, Yanmin" <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> reports that commit
b029195dda0129b427c6e579a3bb3ae752da3a93 introduced a regression
of about 50% with sequential threaded read workloads. The test
case is:

tiotest -k0 -k1 -k3 -f 80 -t 32

which starts 32 threads each reading a 80MB file. Twiddle the kick
queue logic so that we do start IO immediately, if it appears to be
a fully merged request. We can't really detect that, so just check
if the request is bigger than a page or not. The assumption is that
since single bio issues will first queue a single request with just
one page attached and then later do merges on that, if we already
have more than a page worth of data in the request, then the request
is most likely good to go.

Verified that this doesn't cause a regression with the test case that
commit b029195dda0129b427c6e579a3bb3ae752da3a93 was fixing. It does not,
we still see maximum sized requests for the queue-then-merge cases.
