[PATCH] blk-mq: fix incorrect rq start_time_ns and alloc_time_ns after throttled

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

 



From: Chengming Zhou <zhouchengming@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

iocost rely on rq start_time_ns and alloc_time_ns to tell the saturation
state of the block device.

If any qos ->throttle() end up blocking, the cached rq start_time_ns and
alloc_time_ns will include its throtted time, which can confuse its user.

This patch add nr_flush counter in blk_plug, so we can tell if the task
has throttled in any qos ->throttle(), in which case we need to correct
the rq start_time_ns and alloc_time_ns.

Another solution may be make rq_qos_throttle() return bool to indicate
if it has throttled in any qos ->throttle(). But this need more changes.
