I've ran 10 iterations of xfstests with and without iversion and there is no significant difference, in fact it's all well within run by run variation. That's true in aggregate as well for individual tests. However there are problems to solve before we attempt to make it a default. With -o iversion ext4/026 and generic/622 fails. The ext4/026 seems to be a real bug and I am not sure about the other one yet. I'll look into it. -Lukas > > [global] > name=fio-seq-write > filename=fio-seq-write > rw=write > bs=4k > direct=0 > numjobs=1 > time_based > runtime=300 > > [file1] > size=1G > ioengine=libaio > iodepth=16 > > iversion support disabled: > > $ fio ./4k-write.fio > file1: (g=0): rw=write, bs=(R) 4096B-4096B, (W) 4096B-4096B, (T) 4096B-4096B, ioengine=libaio, iodepth=16 > fio-3.27 > Starting 1 process > file1: Laying out IO file (1 file / 1024MiB) > Jobs: 1 (f=1): [W(1)][100.0%][w=52.5MiB/s][w=13.4k IOPS][eta 00m:00s] > file1: (groupid=0, jobs=1): err= 0: pid=10056: Wed Jul 20 12:28:21 2022 > write: IOPS=96.3k, BW=376MiB/s (394MB/s)(110GiB/300001msec); 0 zone resets > slat (nsec): min=1112, max=5727.5k, avg=1917.70, stdev=1300.30 > clat (nsec): min=1112, max=2146.5M, avg=156067.38, stdev=15568002.13 > lat (usec): min=3, max=2146.5k, avg=158.03, stdev=15568.00 > clat percentiles (usec): > | 1.00th=[ 36], 5.00th=[ 36], 10.00th=[ 37], 20.00th=[ 37], > | 30.00th=[ 38], 40.00th=[ 38], 50.00th=[ 38], 60.00th=[ 39], > | 70.00th=[ 39], 80.00th=[ 40], 90.00th=[ 42], 95.00th=[ 44], > | 99.00th=[ 52], 99.50th=[ 59], 99.90th=[ 77], 99.95th=[ 88], > | 99.99th=[ 169] > bw ( KiB/s): min=15664, max=1599456, per=100.00%, avg=897761.07, stdev=504329.17, samples=257 > iops : min= 3916, max=399864, avg=224440.26, stdev=126082.33, samples=257 > lat (usec) : 2=0.01%, 4=0.01%, 10=0.01%, 20=0.01%, 50=98.80% > lat (usec) : 100=1.18%, 250=0.02%, 500=0.01% > lat (msec) : 10=0.01%, 2000=0.01%, >=2000=0.01% > cpu : usr=5.45%, sys=23.92%, ctx=78418, majf=0, minf=14 > IO depths : 1=0.1%, 2=0.1%, 4=0.1%, 8=0.1%, 16=100.0%, 32=0.0%, >=64=0.0% > submit : 0=0.0%, 4=100.0%, 8=0.0%, 16=0.0%, 32=0.0%, 64=0.0%, >=64=0.0% > complete : 0=0.0%, 4=100.0%, 8=0.0%, 16=0.1%, 32=0.0%, 64=0.0%, >=64=0.0% > issued rwts: total=0,28889786,0,0 short=0,0,0,0 dropped=0,0,0,0 > latency : target=0, window=0, percentile=100.00%, depth=16 > > Run status group 0 (all jobs): > WRITE: bw=376MiB/s (394MB/s), 376MiB/s-376MiB/s (394MB/s-394MB/s), io=110GiB (118GB), run=300001-300001msec > > Disk stats (read/write): > dm-7: ios=0/22878, merge=0/0, ticks=0/373254, in_queue=373254, util=43.89%, aggrios=0/99746, aggrmerge=0/9246, aggrticks=0/1406831, aggrin_queue=1408420, aggrutil=73.56% > sda: ios=0/99746, merge=0/9246, ticks=0/1406831, in_queue=1408420, util=73.56% > > mounted with -o iversion: > > $ fio ./4k-write.fio > file1: (g=0): rw=write, bs=(R) 4096B-4096B, (W) 4096B-4096B, (T) 4096B-4096B, ioengine=libaio, iodepth=16 > fio-3.27 > Starting 1 process > Jobs: 1 (f=1): [W(1)][100.0%][eta 00m:00s] > file1: (groupid=0, jobs=1): err= 0: pid=10369: Wed Jul 20 12:33:57 2022 > write: IOPS=96.2k, BW=376MiB/s (394MB/s)(110GiB/300001msec); 0 zone resets > slat (nsec): min=1112, max=1861.5k, avg=1994.58, stdev=890.78 > clat (nsec): min=1392, max=2113.3M, avg=156252.71, stdev=15409487.99 > lat (usec): min=3, max=2113.3k, avg=158.30, stdev=15409.49 > clat percentiles (usec): > | 1.00th=[ 37], 5.00th=[ 38], 10.00th=[ 38], 20.00th=[ 38], > | 30.00th=[ 39], 40.00th=[ 39], 50.00th=[ 40], 60.00th=[ 40], > | 70.00th=[ 41], 80.00th=[ 42], 90.00th=[ 43], 95.00th=[ 45], > | 99.00th=[ 53], 99.50th=[ 60], 99.90th=[ 79], 99.95th=[ 90], > | 99.99th=[ 174] > bw ( KiB/s): min= 304, max=1540000, per=100.00%, avg=870727.42, stdev=499371.78, samples=265 > iops : min= 76, max=385000, avg=217681.82, stdev=124842.94, samples=265 > lat (usec) : 2=0.01%, 4=0.01%, 10=0.01%, 20=0.01%, 50=98.49% > lat (usec) : 100=1.48%, 250=0.02%, 500=0.01% > lat (msec) : 2=0.01%, 2000=0.01%, >=2000=0.01% > cpu : usr=5.71%, sys=24.49%, ctx=52874, majf=0, minf=18 > IO depths : 1=0.1%, 2=0.1%, 4=0.1%, 8=0.1%, 16=100.0%, 32=0.0%, >=64=0.0% > submit : 0=0.0%, 4=100.0%, 8=0.0%, 16=0.0%, 32=0.0%, 64=0.0%, >=64=0.0% > complete : 0=0.0%, 4=100.0%, 8=0.0%, 16=0.1%, 32=0.0%, 64=0.0%, >=64=0.0% > issued rwts: total=0,28856695,0,0 short=0,0,0,0 dropped=0,0,0,0 > latency : target=0, window=0, percentile=100.00%, depth=16 > > Run status group 0 (all jobs): > WRITE: bw=376MiB/s (394MB/s), 376MiB/s-376MiB/s (394MB/s-394MB/s), io=110GiB (118GB), run=300001-300001msec > > Disk stats (read/write): > dm-7: ios=1/16758, merge=0/0, ticks=2/341817, in_queue=341819, util=47.93%, aggrios=1/98153, aggrmerge=0/5691, aggrticks=2/1399496, aggrin_queue=1400893, aggrutil=73.42% > sda: ios=1/98153, merge=0/5691, ticks=2/1399496, in_queue=1400893, util=73.42% > > -- > Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> >
