[PATCH v3 12/12] dm snapshot: merge a linear region of chunks using one large IO

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



s->store->type->prepare_merge returns the number of chunks that can be
linearly copied starting from the returned chunk number backward. (but
the caller is allowed to copy less, and the caller puts the number of
copied chunks to s->store->type->commit_merge)

I.e. if returned chunk numbers are old_chunk == 10 and new_chunk == 20
and returned value is 3, then chunk 20 can be copied to 10, chunk 19 to
9 and 18 to 8.

s->merge_write_interlock_n has now been allowed to be increased up to
the full range of chunks returned from s->store->type->prepare_merge.
Until now kcopyd was only ever allowed to copy one chunk at a time;
as a result snapshot-merge performance was extremely slow.

Also, snapshot_merge_process() needs to delay the merging of _all_
chunks that have in-progress writes; not just the first chunk in the
region that is to be merged.

snapshot-merge performance is now very respectible.
