[PATCH for-next v2 4/6] io_uring: add IORING_SETUP_DEFER_TASKRUN

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

 



Allow deferring async tasks until the user calls io_uring_enter(2) with
the IORING_ENTER_GETEVENTS flag. Enable this mode with a flag at
io_uring_setup time. This functionality requires that the later
io_uring_enter will be called from the same submission task, and therefore
restrict this flag to work only when IORING_SETUP_SINGLE_ISSUER is also
set.

Being able to hand pick when tasks are run prevents the problem where
there is current work to be done, however task work runs anyway.

For example, a common workload would obtain a batch of CQEs, and process
each one. Interrupting this to additional taskwork would add latency but
not gain anything. If instead task work is deferred to just before more
CQEs are obtained then no additional latency is added.

The way this is implemented is by trying to keep task work local to a
io_ring_ctx, rather than to the submission task. This is required, as the
application will want to wake up only a single io_ring_ctx at a time to
process work, and so the lists of work have to be kept separate.

This has some other benefits like not having to check the task continually
in handle_tw_list (and potentially unlocking/locking those), and reducing
locks in the submit & process completions path.

There are networking cases where using this option can reduce request
latency by 50%. For example a contrived example using [1] where the client
sends 2k data and receives the same data back while doing some system
calls (to trigger task work) shows this reduction. The reason ends up
being that if sending responses is delayed by processing task work, then
the client side sits idle. Whereas reordering the sends first means that
the client runs it's workload in parallel with the local task work.

Using https://github.com/DylanZA/netbench/tree/defer_run
Client:
./netbench  --client_only 1 --control_port 10000 --host <host> --tx "epoll --threads 16 --per_thread 1 --size 2048 --resp 2048 --workload 1000"
Server:
./netbench  --server_only 1 --control_port 10000  --rx "io_uring --defer_taskrun 0 --workload 100"   --rx "io_uring  --defer_taskrun 1 --workload 100"
