Here are some numbers for reference to performance. I'm thinking we may want to go with the new version, but I'll let you be the judge of that. I ran some fio random write tests with block size 64k on a system with 8 cpus. 1 job with 1 io-depth: Baseline: slat (usec): min=8, max=849, avg=16.47, stdev=12.33 clat (nsec): min=253, max=751838, avg=346.51, stdev=2452.10 lat (usec): min=9, max=854, avg=17.00, stdev=12.74 lat (nsec) : 500=97.09%, 750=1.73%, 1000=0.57% lat (usec) : 2=0.41%, 4=0.09%, 10=0.06%, 20=0.04%, 50=0.01% lat (usec) : 100=0.01%, 1000=0.01% This patch: slat (usec): min=9, max=3690, avg=16.61, stdev=17.36 clat (nsec): min=28, max=380434, avg=336.59, stdev=1571.23 lat (usec): min=10, max=3699, avg=17.13, stdev=17.51 lat (nsec) : 50=0.01%, 500=97.95%, 750=1.42%, 1000=0.33% lat (usec) : 2=0.19%, 4=0.05%, 10=0.03%, 20=0.03%, 50=0.01% lat (usec) : 100=0.01%, 250=0.01%, 500=0.01% Folios w/ F2FS_ONSTACK_PAGES (next version): slat (usec): min=12, max=13623, avg=19.48, stdev=48.94 clat (nsec): min=265, max=386917, avg=380.97, stdev=1679.85 lat (usec): min=12, max=13635, avg=20.06, stdev=49.27 lat (nsec) : 500=93.55%, 750=4.62%, 1000=0.92% lat (usec) : 2=0.65%, 4=0.09%, 10=0.10%, 20=0.06%, 50=0.01% lat (usec) : 100=0.01%, 250=0.01%, 500=0.01% 1 job with 16 io-depth: Baseline: slat (usec): min=8, max=3907, avg=16.89, stdev=23.39 clat (usec): min=12, max=15160k, avg=11115.61, stdev=265051.86 lat (usec): min=137, max=15160k, avg=11132.68, stdev=265051.75 lat (usec) : 20=0.01%, 250=57.66%, 500=39.56%, 750=1.96%, 1000=0.22% lat (msec) : 2=0.16%, 4=0.06%, 10=0.01%, 2000=0.29%, >=2000=0.08% This patch: slat (usec): min=9, max=1230, avg=17.15, stdev=12.95 clat (usec): min=4, max=39471k, avg=14825.22, stdev=588237.30 lat (usec): min=80, max=39471k, avg=14842.55, stdev=588237.27 lat (usec) : 10=0.01%, 250=38.78%, 500=59.53%, 750=1.12%, 1000=0.16% lat (msec) : 2=0.04%, 2000=0.34%, >=2000=0.02% Folios w/ F2FS_ONSTACK_PAGES (next version): slat (usec): min=9, max=1188, avg=18.74, stdev=14.12 clat (usec): min=5, max=15278k, avg=8936.75, stdev=214230.09 lat (usec): min=90, max=15278k, avg=8955.67, stdev=214230.10 lat (usec) : 10=0.01%, 250=9.68%, 500=86.49%, 750=2.74%, 1000=0.54% lat (msec) : 2=0.18%, 2000=0.32%, >=2000=0.04% > How do the remaining f2fs patches in the series look to you? > Patch 16/23 f2fs_sync_meta_pages() in particular seems like it may > be prone to problems.
