throtl_start_new_slice zeroes *_disp fields.
Hi,
The problem is not just zeroes *_disp fields, in fact, the real problem
is that 'slice_start' is reset to jiffies.
If for instance, new config allowed only 0.5 throughput, the *_disp
fields would be scaled to 0.5.
How that change helps (better) the previously throttled bio to be dispatched?
tg_with_in_bps_limit() is caculating 'wait' based on 'slice_start'and
'bytes_disp':
tg_with_in_bps_limit:
jiffy_elapsed_rnd = jiffies - tg->slice_start[rw];
tmp = bps_limit * jiffy_elapsed_rnd;
do_div(tmp, HZ);
bytes_allowed = tmp; -> how many bytes are allowed in this slice,
incluing dispatched.
if (tg->bytes_disp[rw] + bio_size <= bytes_allowed)
*wait = 0 -> no need to wait if this bio is within limit
extra_bytes = tg->bytes_disp[rw] + bio_size - bytes_allowed;
-> extra_bytes is based on 'bytes_disp'
For example:
1) bps_limit is 2k, we issue two io, (1k and 9k)
2) the first io(1k) will be dispatched, bytes_disp = 1k, slice_start = 0
the second io(9k) is waiting for (9 - (2 - 1)) / 2 = 4 s
3) after 3 s, we update bps_limit to 1k, then new waiting is caculated:
without this patch: bytes_disp = 0, slict_start =3:
bytes_allowed = 1k
extra_bytes = 9k - 1k = 8k
wait = 8s
whth this patch: bytes_disp = 0.5k, slice_start = 0,
bytes_allowed = 1k * 3 + 1k = 4k
extra_bytes = 0.5k + 9k - 4k = 5.5k
wait = 5.5s
I hope I can expliain it clearly...
Thanks,
Kuai
(Is it because you omit update of slice_{start,end}?)
Thanks,
