blk-mq 5-8 times slower for bmap-tools

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

 



Hello

Coming from: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=906328

bmaptools is kind of a "smart dd" tool, that lets you write images
very fast and securely. Since the last Debian Kernel update it has
become 5-8 times slower.

After some debugging, we have figured out that the reason for that
slowness is the Multi-Queue Block IO Queueing Mechanism.

Debian maintainer has pointed out that in the near future the single
queue will be deprecated.

My question is if we can get a similar perfomance for bmaptools with
blk-mq and how?

Thanks!
