I developed these changes some weeks ago but have since focused on regression and performance testing on larger NUMA systems. For regression testing I've been using mptest: https://github.com/snitm/mptest For performance testing I've been using a null_blk device (with various configuration permutations, e.g. pinning memory to a particular NUMA node, and varied number of submit_queues). By eliminating multipath's heavy use of the m->lock spinlock in the fast IO paths serious performance improvements are realized.
