From d47f9717e5cfd0dd8c0ba2ecfa47c38d140f1bb6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zhiguo Niu Date: Thu, 3 Aug 2023 19:12:42 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] block/mq-deadline: use correct way to throttling write requests The original formula was inaccurate: dd->async_depth = max(1UL, 3 * q->nr_requests / 4); For write requests, when we assign a tags from sched_tags, data->shallow_depth will be passed to sbitmap_find_bit, see the following code: nr = sbitmap_find_bit_in_word(&sb->map[index], min_t (unsigned int, __map_depth(sb, index), depth), alloc_hint, wrap); The smaller of data->shallow_depth and __map_depth(sb, index) will be used as the maximum range when allocating bits. For a mmc device (one hw queue, deadline I/O scheduler): q->nr_requests = sched_tags = 128, so according to the previous calculation method, dd->async_depth = data->shallow_depth = 96, and the platform is 64bits with 8 cpus, sched_tags.bitmap_tags.sb.shift=5, sb.maps[]=32/32/32/32, 32 is smaller than 96, whether it is a read or a write I/O, tags can be allocated to the maximum range each time, which has not throttling effect. In addition, refer to the methods of bfg/kyber I/O scheduler, limit ratiois are calculated base on sched_tags.bitmap_tags.sb.shift. This patch can throttle write requests really.
