From 8ab22b9abb5c55413802e4adc9aa6223324547c3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hisashi Hifumi Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2008 15:46:36 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vfs: pagecache usage optimization for pagesize!=blocksize When we read some part of a file through pagecache, if there is a pagecache of corresponding index but this page is not uptodate, read IO is issued and this page will be uptodate. I think this is good for pagesize == blocksize environment but there is room for improvement on pagesize != blocksize environment. Because in this case a page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not uptodate, some buffers can be uptodate. So I suggest that when all buffers which correspond to a part of a file that we want to read are uptodate, use this pagecache and copy data from this pagecache to user buffer even if a page is not uptodate. This can reduce read IO and improve system throughput. I wrote a benchmark program and got result number with this program. This benchmark do: 1: mount and open a test file. 2: create a 512MB file. 3: close a file and umount. 4: mount and again open a test file. 5: pwrite randomly 300000 times on a test file. offset is aligned by IO size(1024bytes). 6: measure time of preading randomly 100000 times on a test file. The result was: 2.6.26 330 sec 2.6.26-patched 226 sec Arch:i386 Filesystem:ext3 Blocksize:1024 bytes Memory: 1GB On ext3/4, a file is written through buffer/block. So random read/write mixed workloads or random read after random write workloads are optimized with this patch under pagesize != blocksize environment. This test result showed this. The benchmark program is as follows: #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #define LEN 1024 #define LOOP 1024*512 /* 512MB */ main(void) { unsigned long i, offset, filesize; int fd; char buf[LEN]; time_t t1, t2; if (mount("/dev/sda1", "/root/test1/", "ext3", 0, 0) < 0) { perror("cannot mount\n"); exit(1); } memset(buf, 0, LEN); fd = open("/root/test1/testfile", O_CREAT|O_RDWR|O_TRUNC); if (fd < 0) { perror("cannot open file\n"); exit(1); } for (i = 0; i < LOOP; i++) write(fd, buf, LEN); close(fd); if (umount("/root/test1/") < 0) { perror("cannot umount\n"); exit(1); } if (mount("/dev/sda1", "/root/test1/", "ext3", 0, 0) < 0) { perror("cannot mount\n"); exit(1); } fd = open("/root/test1/testfile", O_RDWR); if (fd < 0) { perror("cannot open file\n"); exit(1); } filesize = LEN * LOOP; for (i = 0; i < 300000; i++){ offset = (random() % filesize) & (~(LEN - 1)); pwrite(fd, buf, LEN, offset); } printf("start test\n"); time(&t1); for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++){ offset = (random() % filesize) & (~(LEN - 1)); pread(fd, buf, LEN, offset); } time(&t2); printf("%ld sec\n", t2-t1); close(fd); if (umount("/root/test1/") < 0) { perror("cannot umount\n"); exit(1); } } Signed-off-by: Hisashi Hifumi Cc: Nick Piggin Cc: Christoph Hellwig Cc: Jan Kara Cc: Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- fs/buffer.c | 46 +++++++++++++++++++ fs/ext2/inode.c | 1 + fs/ext3/inode.c | 67 ++++++++++++++------------- fs/ext4/inode.c | 92 +++++++++++++++++++------------------ include/linux/buffer_head.h | 2 + include/linux/fs.h | 44 +++++++++--------- mm/filemap.c | 14 +++++- 7 files changed, 167 insertions(+), 99 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/buffer.c b/fs/buffer.c index f958050196..ca12a6bb82 100644 --- a/fs/buffer.c +++ b/fs/buffer.c @@ -2095,6 +2095,52 @@ int generic_write_end(struct file *file, struct address_space *mapping, } EXPORT_SYMBOL(generic_write_end); +/* + * block_is_partially_uptodate checks whether buffers within a page are + * uptodate or not. + * + * Returns true if all buffers which correspond to a file portion + * we want to read are uptodate. + */ +int block_is_partially_uptodate(struct page *page, read_descriptor_t *desc, + unsigned long from) +{ + struct inode *inode = page->mapping->host; + unsigned block_start, block_end, blocksize; + unsigned to; + struct buffer_head *bh, *head; + int ret = 1; + + if (!page_has_buffers(page)) + return 0; + + blocksize = 1 << inode->i_blkbits; + to = min_t(unsigned, PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - from, desc->count); + to = from + to; + if (from < blocksize && to > PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - blocksize) + return 0; + + head = page_buffers(page); + bh = head; + block_start = 0; + do { + block_end = block_start + blocksize; + if (block_end > from && block_start < to) { + if (!buffer_uptodate(bh)) { + ret = 0; + break; + } + if (block_end >= to) + break; + } + block_start = block_end; + bh = bh->b_this_page; + } while (bh != head); + + return ret; +} +EXPORT_SYMBOL(block_is_partially_uptodate); + /* * Generic "read page" function for block devices that have the normal * get_block functionality.
