Hi, zhucaifeng
The patch generally looks good. But I think there is minor flaw, see
my comment below. Besides, could you write a patch for the newest
kernel (it's easier because there is iov_iter_get_pages() helper).

Hi, all
When using cephfs, we find that cephfs direct io is very slow.
For example, installing Windows 7 takes more than 1 hour on a
virtual machine whose disk is a file in cephfs.
The cause is that when doing direct io, both ceph_sync_direct_write
and ceph_sync_read iterate iov elements one by one, and send one
osd_op request for each iov that covers about 4K~8K bytes data. The
result is lots of small requests and replies shuttled among the kernel
client and OSDs.
The fix tries to combine as many iovs as possible into one page vector,
and
then send one request for this page vector. In this way, small requests
and
replies are reduced; the OSD can serve a large read/write request one
time.
We observe that the performance is improved by about 5~15 times,
dependent
on
different application workload.
The fix is below. Some change notes are as follows:
- function ceph_get_direct_page_vetor and ceph_put_page_vector
are moved from net/ceph/pagevec.c to fs/ceph/file.c, and are
renamed as dio_grab_pages and dio_free_pagev respectively.
- function dio_get_pagevlen and dio_alloc_pagev are newly
introduced.
dio_get_pagevlen is to calculate the page vector length in bytes
from the io vectors. Except for the first and last one, an io
vector
can be merged into a page vector iff its base and tail are page
aligned.
for the first vector, only its tail should be page aligned; for
the
last
vector, only its head should be page aligned.
dio_alloc_pagev allocates pages for each io vector and put these
pages
together in one page pointer array.
Best Regards!
