commit 05e487a01b40da4e9f952eafa68bfde28074a385
Author: Bobi Jam <bobijam@whamcloud.com>
AuthorDate: Mon Jul 10 19:40:34 2023 +0800
With LVM it is possible to create an LV with SSD storage at the
beginning of the LV and HDD storage at the end of the LV, and use that
to separate ext4 metadata allocations (that need small random IOs)
from data allocations (that are better suited for large sequential
IOs) depending on the type of underlying storage. Between 0.5-1.0% of
the filesystem capacity would need to be high-IOPS storage in order to
hold all of the internal metadata.
This would improve performance for inode and other metadata access,
such as ls, find, e2fsck, and in general improve file access latency,
modification, truncate, unlink, transaction commit, etc.
This patch split largest free order group lists and average fragment
size lists into other two lists for IOPS/fast storage groups, and
CR_POWER2_ALIGNED / CR_GOAL_LEN_FAST group scanning for metadata
block allocation in following order:
if (allocate metadata blocks)
if (cr == CR_POWER2_ALIGNED)
try to find group in largest free order IOPS group list
if (cr == CR_GOAL_LEN_FAST)
try to find group in fragment size IOPS group list
if (above two find failed)
fall through normal group lists as before
if (allocate data blocks)
try to find group in normal group lists as before
if (failed to find group in normal group && mb_enable_iops_data)
try to find group in IOPS groups
Non-metadata block allocation does not allocate from the IOPS groups
if non-IOPS groups are not used up.
Add for mke2fs an option to mark which blocks are in the IOPS region
of storage at format time:
-E iops=0-1024G,4096-8192G
so the ext4 mballoc code can then use the EXT4_BG_IOPS flag in the
group descriptors to decide which groups to allocate dynamic
filesystem metadata.
--
v2->v3: add sysfs mb_enable_iops_data to enable data block allocation
from IOPS groups.
v1->v2: for metadata block allocation, search in IOPS list then normal
list.
