io_uring: only wake up sq thread while current task is in io worker context
If IORING_SETUP_SQPOLL is enabled, sqes are either handled in sq thread task context or in io worker task context. If current task context is sq thread, we don't need to check whether should wake up sq thread. io_iopoll_req_issued() calls wq_has_sleeper(), which has smp_mb() memory barrier, before this patch, perf shows obvious overhead: Samples: 481K of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 299807382878 Overhead Comma Shared Object Symbol 3.69% :9630 [kernel.vmlinux] [k] io_issue_sqe With this patch, perf shows: Samples: 482K of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 299929547283 Overhead Comma Shared Object Symbol 0.70% :4015 [kernel.vmlinux] [k] io_issue_sqe It shows some obvious improvements.
