btrfs: drop extent map range more efficiently
Currently when dropping extent maps for a file range, through btrfs_drop_extent_map_range(), we do the following non-optimal things: 1) We lookup for extent maps one by one, always starting the search from the root of the extent map tree. This is not efficient if we have multiple extent maps in the range; 2) We check on every iteration if we have the 'split' and 'split2' spare extent maps in case we need to split an extent map that intersects our range but also crosses its boundaries (to the left, to the right or both cases). If our target range is for example: [2M, 8M) And we have 3 extents maps in the range: [1M, 3M) [3M, 6M) [6M, 10M[ The on the first iteration we allocate two extent maps for 'split' and 'split2', and use the 'split' to split the first extent map, so after the split we set 'split' to 'split2' and then set 'split2' to NULL. On the second iteration, we don't need to split the second extent map, but because 'split2' is now NULL, we allocate a new extent map for 'split2'. On the third iteration we need to split the third extent map, so we use the extent map pointed by 'split'. So we ended up allocating 3 extent maps for splitting, but all we needed was 2 extent maps. We never need to allocate more than 2, because extent maps that need to be split are always the first one and the last one in the target range. Improve on this by: 1) Using rb_next() to move on to the next extent map. This results in iterating over less nodes of the tree and it does not require comparing the ranges of nodes to our start/end offset; 2) Allocate the 2 extent maps for splitting before entering the loop and never allocate more than 2. In practice it's very rare to have the combination of both extent map allocations fail, since we have a dedicated slab for extent maps, and also have the need to split two extent maps. This patch is part of a patchset comprised of the following patches: btrfs: fix missed extent on fsync after dropping extent maps btrfs: move btrfs_drop_extent_cache() to extent_map.c btrfs: use extent_map_end() at btrfs_drop_extent_map_range() btrfs: use cond_resched_rwlock_write() during inode eviction btrfs: move open coded extent map tree deletion out of inode eviction btrfs: add helper to replace extent map range with a new extent map btrfs: remove the refcount warning/check at free_extent_map() btrfs: remove unnecessary extent map initializations btrfs: assert tree is locked when clearing extent map from logging btrfs: remove unnecessary NULL pointer checks when searching extent maps btrfs: remove unnecessary next extent map search btrfs: avoid pointless extent map tree search when flushing delalloc btrfs: drop extent map range more efficiently And the following fio test was done before and after applying the whole patchset, on a non-debug kernel (Debian's default kernel config) on a 12 cores Intel box with 64G of ram: $ cat test.sh #!/bin/bash DEV=/dev/nvme0n1 MNT=/mnt/nvme0n1 MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o ssd" MKFS_OPTIONS="-R free-space-tree -O no-holes" cat <<EOF > /tmp/fio-job.ini [writers] rw=randwrite fsync=8 fallocate=none group_reporting=1 direct=0 bssplit=4k/20:8k/20:16k/20:32k/10:64k/10:128k/5:256k/5:512k/5:1m/5 ioengine=psync filesize=2G runtime=300 time_based directory=$MNT numjobs=8 thread EOF echo performance | \ tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor echo echo "Using config:" echo cat /tmp/fio-job.ini echo umount $MNT &> /dev/null mkfs.btrfs -f $MKFS_OPTIONS $DEV mount $MOUNT_OPTIONS $DEV $MNT fio /tmp/fio-job.ini umount $MNT Result before applying the patchset: WRITE: bw=197MiB/s (206MB/s), 197MiB/s-197MiB/s (206MB/s-206MB/s), io=57.7GiB (61.9GB), run=300188-300188msec Result after applying the patchset: WRITE: bw=203MiB/s (213MB/s), 203MiB/s-203MiB/s (213MB/s-213MB/s), io=59.5GiB (63.9GB), run=300019-300019msec Signed-off-by: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
