Currently the code doesn't recognize asynchronous calls passed
by io_submit() and processes all calls synchronously. This is not
what kernel AIO expects. This patch improves this for reading
by introducing new async context that keeps track of all issued i/o
requests and moving a response collecting procedure to a separate
thread. This allows to return to the caller immediately for
asynchronous calls and call the iocb->ki_complete() once all requests
are completed. For synchronous calls the current thread simply
waits until all requests are completed.

This improves reading performance of single threaded applications
with increasing of i/o queue depth size.

My first thought here is that this patch is huge, and I'm having a
difficult time following the changes that you're introducing. Have you
considered breaking this up into smaller (and bisectable)changes. If
there is a regression in here, tracking it down will be very difficuly
with this patch as a single monolithic blob.

My second thought here is that this is an awful lot of new
infrastructure -- some more verbose explanation is warranted.

Can we not just take a reference to the iocb and keep a pointer to it
in cifs_readdata. Then when we go to fill pages or deal with an error,
do the ki_complete? I guess each aio request can end up with multiple
write SMBs on the wire, so maybe you do need something to aggregate all
of that? I'm not sure I follow the rationale 100%...

The coarse-grained aio_mutex here is particularly nasty, and will be a
pain to rip out later if it turns out to be a performance bottleneck.
It's held over almost all of this new code, so it's not clear what it
protects. Is it really necessary, or could you get away with some
lighter-weight synchronization -- e.g. spinlocks?

I haven't gone to go dig around in the AIO code, but what guarantees
that ctx->iocb still points to valid memory once you get here. This
will be called in workqueue context when the read reply comes in?

Is it possible that this kiocb could be freed (via aio_cancel perhaps?)
while there are still requests in flight?

Thank you for taking a look at this.

The are two parts here: adding the new async infrastructure and using
of this infrastructure for read code path. I can split the patch into
two but the first one won't make any difference to the code because it
would be just static functions that are not called anywhere.

The problem with async code path is that we don't have a direct access
to the memory under provided iovec argument from the kernel threads.
That's why we need to get underlying pages and map them once they are
needed.

You are right, one aio request can lead to multiple SMBs and we need
to aggregate the results. That's why cifs_aio_ctx structure was
introduced. Every readdata keeps a reference to this context and
populate the pages with data in the correct order.

The mutex is used to prevent parallel access to a context internal
fields (ctx->list, ctx->rc) from multiple readdata completion
routines. Since we need to populate the pages in the correct order it
shouldn't affect the performance. Also we can retry the request that
may split it into several ones (which need to be placed into correct
positions in the list) and makes things more complicated if we want to
use spinlocks. Note that we don't want to retry the request if the
previous ones (in the order) failed. If case of no error, we won't
hold the mutex for a long time.

ctx->iocb points to iocb argument which is allocated on the heap for
async code path. For sync code path iocb is stack allocated, so
ctx->iocb is NULL and we call complete().

We do not set ki_cancel(), so an async job can't be cancelled. I
didn't find any other cases when it can be freed. Also I looked at
other filesystem modules (e.g. FUSE), it seems like they reply on this
too.

We need to hold the mutex here because we populate ctx->list here and
during the sending procedure the responses can be received and
processed.

I would really, really appreciate seeing this patch broken up into
smaller, logical changes. It's very difficult to

It would be more efficient to allocate a page array of the max length,
and then reuse that array in each call to iov_iter_get_pages --
especially if contiguous memory is tight and you end up having to use
vmalloc.

Also, just a heads up that I sent a patch a couple of months ago to
rework the above function to generate longer page arrays when possible,
but Al didn't care for it. He's supposedly going to rework the above
function into something that grabs a pile of pages and issues a callback
to each of them. Once that goes in, you may want to rework this code to
use that instead.

I think you can remove the above comment, and this should probably be a
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE sleep.

Other than the above, this looks pretty reasonable. Nice work!

Do you mean allocating a fixed size array (like 4096 pages) or an
array of "max_pages" size? The latter can potentially lead to large
allocation and need to fallback to vmalloc (as we have for bio_vec
above). The former should work with kmalloc but the code will stuck in
the loop for a while for big i/o sizes if we choose the fixed size
rather small.
