[PATCH 0/4] scis: don't apply per-LUN queue depth for SSD

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

 



Hi,

SCSI's per-LUN queue depth is usually for improving IO merge and
balancing IO load among LUNs. blk-mq has provides fair driver tag
allocation and managed IRQ balances interrupt load among queues,
meantime IO merge doesn't play a big role for SSD, and NVMe doesn't
apply per-namespace queue depth.

This patchset tries to don't apply per-LUN queue depth for SSD, then
we can avoid the expensive atomic operation on sdev->device_busy.
We do understand that this shared counter affects IOPS a lot.

The 1st two patches replaces .device_busy with two private counter for
megaraid_sas and mpt3sas to track inflight per-LUN commands since the
two drivers need the counter for balancing load, even though it is
probably no much use.

The last two patches avoid to operate on sdev->device_busy in IO path
for SSD.


Ming Lei (4):
  scsi: megaraid_sas: use private counter for tracking inflight per-LUN
    commands
  scsi: mpt3sas: use private counter for tracking inflight per-LUN
    commands
  scsi: sd: register request queue after sd_revalidate_disk is done
  scsi: core: don't limit per-LUN queue depth for SSD
