This patch supports polling I/O via virtio-blk driver. Polling
feature is enabled by module parameter "num_poll_queues" and it
sets dedicated polling queues for virtio-blk. This patch improves
the polling I/O throughput and latency.

The virtio-blk driver doesn't not have a poll function and a poll
queue and it has been operating in interrupt driven method even if
the polling function is called in the upper layer.

virtio-blk polling is implemented upon 'batched completion' of block
layer. virtblk_poll() queues completed request to io_comp_batch->req_list
and later, virtblk_complete_batch() calls unmap function and ends
the requests in batch.

virtio-blk reads the number of poll queues from module parameter
"num_poll_queues". If VM sets queue parameter as below,
("num-queues=N" [QEMU property], "num_poll_queues=M" [module parameter])
It allocates N virtqueues to virtio_blk->vqs[N] and it uses [0..(N-M-1)]
as default queues and [(N-M)..(N-1)] as poll queues. Unlike the default
queues, the poll queues have no callback function.

Regarding HW-SW queue mapping, the default queue mapping uses the
existing method that condsiders MSI irq vector. But the poll queue
doesn't have an irq, so it uses the regular blk-mq cpu mapping.

For verifying the improvement, I did Fio polling I/O performance test
with io_uring engine with the options below.
(io_uring, hipri, randread, direct=1, bs=512, iodepth=64 numjobs=N)
I set 4 vcpu and 4 virtio-blk queues - 2 default queues and 2 poll
queues for VM.

As a result, IOPS and average latency improved about 10%.

Test result:

- Fio io_uring poll without virtio-blk poll support
	-- numjobs=1 : IOPS = 339K, avg latency = 188.33us
	-- numjobs=2 : IOPS = 367K, avg latency = 347.33us
	-- numjobs=4 : IOPS = 383K, avg latency = 682.06us

- Fio io_uring poll with virtio-blk poll support
	-- numjobs=1 : IOPS = 380K, avg latency = 167.87us
	-- numjobs=2 : IOPS = 409K, avg latency = 312.6us
	-- numjobs=4 : IOPS = 413K, avg latency = 619.72us

Is there some way to make it work reasonably without need to set
module parameters? I don't see any other devices with a num_poll_queues
parameter - how do they handle this?

Hi Michael,

NVMe driver uses module parameter.

Please refer to this.
-----
drivers/nvme/host/pci.c

static unsigned int poll_queues;
module_param_cb(poll_queues, &io_queue_count_ops, &poll_queues, 0644);
MODULE_PARM_DESC(poll_queues, "Number of queues to use for polled IO.");
-----

Regards,
Suwan Kim

Hi Suwan,

The NVMe prints something like below by nvme_setup_io_queues() to confirm
if the configuration takes effect.

"[ 0.620458] nvme nvme0: 4/0/0 default/read/poll queues".

How about to print in virtio-blk as well?

Thank you very much!

Dongli Zhang

Ok. Consistent naming scheme seems to be better for code readability.
I will rename it to 'poll_queues' in next version.

Sorry for late reply.

Maybe below function calls iterate each HW queue and flush requests
before device is removed?

virtblk_remove() -> blk_cleanup_disk()/blk_cleanup_queue() ->
blk_queue_start_drain()/blk_freeze_queue()

virtblk_done() does:

  /* In case queue is stopped waiting for more buffers. */
  if (req_done)
          blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queues(vblk->disk->queue, true);

Is the same thing needed here in virtblk_poll() so that stopped queues
are restarted when requests complete?

I think you are right. I missed that.

I just added blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queues() to virtblk_poll as
you commented and did performance test again.

It showed higher peak performance than virtblk_poll without
blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queues().

I will add it in next version.
Thanks for the comment!
