[PATCH 0/9] blk-mq: Reduce static requests memory footprint for shared sbitmap

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

 



Currently a full set of static requests are allocated per hw queue per
tagset when shared sbitmap is used.

However, only tagset->queue_depth number of requests may be active at
any given time. As such, only tagset->queue_depth number of static
requests are required.

The same goes for using an IO scheduler, which allocates a full set of
static requests per hw queue per request queue.

This series very significantly reduces memory usage in both scenarios by
allocating static rqs per tagset and per request queue, respectively,
rather than per hw queue per tagset and per request queue.

For megaraid sas driver on my 128-CPU arm64 system with 1x SATA disk, we
save approx. 300MB(!) [370MB -> 60MB]

A couple of patches are marked as RFC, as maybe there is a better
implementation approach.

Any more testing would be appreciated also.
