applied, so merge chance is increased. This patch applies batching
submission, so queue becomes not busy enough.
BTW, what is the queue depth of sdev and can_queue of shost for your
hisilision SAS?
sdev queue depth is 64 (see hisi_sas_slave_configure()) and host
depth is
4096 - 96 (for reserved tags) = 4000
OK, so queue depth should get IO merged if there are too many requests
queued.
What is the same read test result without shared tags? still 430K?
I never left a driver switch in place to disable it.
I can forward-port "reply-map" support, which is not too difficult and I
will let you know the result.
The 'after' results are similar to without shared sbitmap, i.e using
reply-map:
reply-map:
450K (read), 430K IOPs (randread)
For reference, with shared shared sbitmap:
Before 620K (read), 300K IOPs (randread)
After 460K (read), 430K (randread)*
These are all mq-deadline.
* I mixed read and randread result earlier by accident
And what is your exact read test script? And how many cpu cores in
your system?
Thanks,
John
