[PATCH 15/17] io_uring/uring_cmd: defer SQE copying until we need it

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

 



The previous commit turned on async data for uring_cmd, and did the
basic conversion of setting everything up on the prep side. However, for
a lot of use cases, we'll get -EIOCBQUEUED on issue, which means we do
not need a persistent big SQE copied.

Unless we're going async immediately, defer copying the double SQE until
we know we have to.

This greatly reduces the overhead of such commands, as evidenced by
a perf diff from before and after this change:

    10.60%     -8.58%  [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] io_uring_cmd_prep

where the prep side drops from 10.60% to ~2%, which is more expected.
Performance also rises from ~113M IOPS to ~122M IOPS, bringing us back
to where it was before the async command prep.
