This patch supports polling I/O via virtio-blk driver. Polling feature is enabled by module parameter "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 "poll_queues". If VM sets queue parameter as below, ("num-queues=N" [QEMU property], "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 = 385K, avg latency = 165.94us -- numjobs=2 : IOPS = 408K, avg latency = 313.28us -- numjobs=4 : IOPS = 424K, avg latency = 613.05us Reviewed-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Max Gurtovoy <mgurtovoy@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Suwan Kim <suwan.kim027@gmail.com> --- drivers/block/virtio_blk.c | 106 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 103 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
