It would be nice to preserve as much of the logical order as possible. In addition, the allocations are equally scattered across all top-level VDEVs but not all top-level VDEVs are created equally. The pipeline should be able to detect devices that are more capable of handling allocations and should allocate more blocks to those devices. This allows for dynamic allocation distribution when devices are imbalanced as fuller devices will tend to be slower than empty devices. The change includes a new pool-wide allocation queue which would throttle and order allocations in the ZIO pipeline. The queue would be ordered by issued time and offset and would provide an initial amount of allocation of work to each top-level vdev. The allocation logic utilizes a reservation system to reserve allocations that will be performed by the allocator. Once an allocation is successfully completed it's scheduled on a given top-level vdev. Each top-level vdev maintains a maximum number of allocations that it can handle (mg_alloc_queue_depth). The pool-wide reserved allocations (top-levels * mg_alloc_queue_depth) are distributed across the top-level vdevs metaslab groups and round robin across all eligible metaslab groups to distribute the work. As top-levels complete their work, they receive additional work from the pool-wide allocation queue until the allocation queue is emptied.

The existing algorithm selects a preferred leaf vdev based on offset of the zio request modulo the number of members in the mirror. It assumes the devices are of equal performance and that spreading the requests randomly over both drives will be sufficient to saturate them. In practice this results in the leaf vdevs being under utilized. The new algorithm takes into the following additional factors: * Load of the vdevs (number outstanding I/O requests) * The locality of last queued I/O vs the new I/O request. Within the locality calculation additional knowledge about the underlying vdev is considered such as; is the device backing the vdev a rotating media device. This results in performance increases across the board as well as significant increases for predominantly streaming loads and for configurations which don't have evenly performing devices. The following are results from a setup with 3 Way Mirror with 2 x HD's and 1 x SSD from a basic test running multiple parrallel dd's.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By marking DMU transaction processing contexts with PF_FSTRANS we can revert the KM_PUSHPAGE -> KM_SLEEP changes. This brings us back in line with upstream. In some cases this means simply swapping the flags back. For others fnvlist_alloc() was replaced by nvlist_alloc(..., KM_PUSHPAGE) and must be reverted back to fnvlist_alloc() which assumes KM_SLEEP.

* Illumos #4045 write throttle & i/o scheduler performance workMatthew Ahrens2013-12-061-2/+2

The ZFS i/o scheduler (vdev_queue.c) now divides i/os into 5 classes: sync read, sync write, async read, async write, and scrub/resilver. The scheduler issues a number of concurrent i/os from each class to the device. Once a class has been selected, an i/o is selected from this class using either an elevator algorithem (async, scrub classes) or FIFO (sync classes). The number of concurrent async write i/os is tuned dynamically based on i/o load, to achieve good sync i/o latency when there is not a high load of writes, and good write throughput when there is. See the block comment in vdev_queue.c (reproduced below) for more details. 2. The write throttle (dsl_pool_tempreserve_space() and txg_constrain_throughput()) is rewritten to produce much more consistent delays when under constant load. The new write throttle is based on the amount of dirty data, rather than guesses about future performance of the system. When there is a lot of dirty data, each transaction (e.g. write() syscall) will be delayed by the same small amount. This eliminates the "brick wall of wait" that the old write throttle could hit, causing all transactions to wait several seconds until the next txg opens. One of the keys to the new write throttle is decrementing the amount of dirty data as i/o completes, rather than at the end of spa_sync(). Note that the write throttle is only applied once the i/o scheduler is issuing the maximum number of outstanding async writes. See the block comments in dsl_pool.c and above dmu_tx_delay() (reproduced below) for more details. This diff has several other effects, including: * the commonly-tuned global variable zfs_vdev_max_pending has been removed; use per-class zfs_vdev_*_max_active values or zfs_vdev_max_active instead. * the size of each txg (meaning the amount of dirty data written, and thus the time it takes to write out) is now controlled differently. There is no longer an explicit time goal; the primary determinant is amount of dirty data. Systems that are under light or medium load will now often see that a txg is always syncing, but the impact to performance (e.g. read latency) is minimal. Tune zfs_dirty_data_max and zfs_dirty_data_sync to control this. * zio_taskq_batch_pct = 75 -- Only use 75% of all CPUs for compression, checksum, etc. This improves latency by not allowing these CPU-intensive tasks to consume all CPU (on machines with at least 4 CPU's; the percentage is rounded up). --matt APPENDIX: problems with the current i/o scheduler The current ZFS i/o scheduler (vdev_queue.c) is deadline based. The problem with this is that if there are always i/os pending, then certain classes of i/os can see very long delays. For example, if there are always synchronous reads outstanding, then no async writes will be serviced until they become "past due". One symptom of this situation is that each pass of the txg sync takes at least several seconds (typically 3 seconds). If many i/os become "past due" (their deadline is in the past), then we must service all of these overdue i/os before any new i/os. This happens when we enqueue a batch of async writes for the txg sync, with deadlines 2.5 seconds in the future. If we can't complete all the i/os in 2.5 seconds (e.g. because there were always reads pending), then these i/os will become past due. Now we must service all the "async" writes (which could be hundreds of megabytes) before we service any reads, introducing considerable latency to synchronous i/os (reads or ZIL writes). Notes on porting to ZFS on Linux: - zio_t gained new members io_physdone and io_phys_children. Because object caches in the Linux port call the constructor only once at allocation time, objects may contain residual data when retrieved from the cache. Therefore zio_create() was updated to zero out the two new fields. - vdev_mirror_pending() relied on the depth of the per-vdev pending queue (vq->vq_pending_tree) to select the least-busy leaf vdev to read from. This tree has been replaced by vq->vq_active_tree which is now used for the same purpose. - vdev_queue_init() used the value of zfs_vdev_max_pending to determine the number of vdev I/O buffers to pre-allocate. That global no longer exists, so we instead use the sum of the *_max_active values for each of the five I/O classes described above. - The Illumos implementation of dmu_tx_delay() delays a transaction by sleeping in condition variable embedded in the thread (curthread->t_delay_cv). We do not have an equivalent CV to use in Linux, so this change replaced the delay logic with a wrapper called zfs_sleep_until(). This wrapper could be adopted upstream and in other downstream ports to abstract away operating system-specific delay logic. - These tunables are added as module parameters, and descriptions added to the zfs-module-parameters.5 man page. spa_asize_inflation zfs_deadman_synctime_ms zfs_vdev_max_active zfs_vdev_async_write_active_min_dirty_percent zfs_vdev_async_write_active_max_dirty_percent zfs_vdev_async_read_max_active zfs_vdev_async_read_min_active zfs_vdev_async_write_max_active zfs_vdev_async_write_min_active zfs_vdev_scrub_max_active zfs_vdev_scrub_min_active zfs_vdev_sync_read_max_active zfs_vdev_sync_read_min_active zfs_vdev_sync_write_max_active zfs_vdev_sync_write_min_active zfs_dirty_data_max_percent zfs_delay_min_dirty_percent zfs_dirty_data_max_max_percent zfs_dirty_data_max zfs_dirty_data_max_max zfs_dirty_data_sync zfs_delay_scale The latter four have type unsigned long, whereas they are uint64_t in Illumos. This accommodates Linux's module_param() supported types, but means they may overflow on 32-bit architectures. The values zfs_dirty_data_max and zfs_dirty_data_max_max are the most likely to overflow on 32-bit systems, since they express physical RAM sizes in bytes. In fact, Illumos initializes zfs_dirty_data_max_max to 2^32 which does overflow. To resolve that, this port instead initializes it in arc_init() to 25% of physical RAM, and adds the tunable zfs_dirty_data_max_max_percent to override that percentage. While this solution doesn't completely avoid the overflow issue, it should be a reasonable default for most systems, and the minority of affected systems can work around the issue by overriding the defaults. - Fixed reversed logic in comment above zfs_delay_scale declaration. - Clarified comments in vdev_queue.c regarding when per-queue minimums take effect. - Replaced dmu_tx_write_limit in the dmu_tx kstat file with dmu_tx_dirty_delay and dmu_tx_dirty_over_max. The first counts how many times a transaction has been delayed because the pool dirty data has exceeded zfs_delay_min_dirty_percent. The latter counts how many times the pool dirty data has exceeded zfs_dirty_data_max (which we expect to never happen). - The original patch would have regressed the bug fixed in zfsonlinux/zfs@c418410, which prevented users from setting the zfs_vdev_aggregation_limit tuning larger than SPA_MAXBLOCKSIZE. A similar fix is added to vdev_queue_aggregate(). - In vdev_queue_io_to_issue(), dynamically allocate 'zio_t search' on the heap instead of the stack. In Linux we can't afford such large structures on the stack.

* Reduce stack for traverse_visitbp() recursionBrian Behlendorf2013-11-141-4/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During pool import stack overflows may still occur due to the potentially deep recursion of traverse_visitbp(). This is most likely to occur when additional layers are added to the block device stack such as DM multipath. To minimize the stack usage for this call path the following changes were made: 1) Added the keywork 'noinline' to the vdev_*_map_alloc() functions to prevent them from being inlined by gcc. This reduced the stack usage of vdev_raidz_io_start() from 208 to 128 bytes, and vdev_mirror_io_start() from 144 to 128 bytes. 2) The 'saved_poolname' charater array in zfsdev_ioctl() was moved from the stack to the heap. This reduced the stack usage of zfsdev_ioctl() from 368 to 112 bytes. 3) The major saving came from slimming down traverse_visitbp() from from 224 to 144 bytes. Since this function is called recursively the 80 bytes saved per invokation adds up. The following changes were made: a) The 'hard' local variable was replaced by a TD_HARD() macro. b) The 'pd' local variable was replaced by 'td->td_pfd' references. c) The zbookmark_t was moved to the heap. This does cost us an additional memory allocation per recursion by that cost should still be minimal. The cost could be further reduced by adding a dedicated zbookmark_t slab cache. d) The variable declarations in 'if (BP_GET_LEVEL()) { }' were restructured to use the minimum amount of stack. This includes removing the 'cbp' local variable. Overall for the offending use case roughly 1584 of total stack space has been saved. This is enough to avoid overflowing the stack on stock kernels with 8k stacks. See #1778 for additional details.

* Improve N-way mirror performanceBrian Behlendorf2013-07-111-3/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The read bandwidth of an N-way mirror can by increased by 50%, and the IOPs by 10%, by more carefully selecting the preferred leaf vdev. The existing algorthm selects a perferred leaf vdev based on offset of the zio request modulo the number of members in the mirror. It assumes the drives are of equal performance and that spreading the requests randomly over both drives will be sufficient to saturate them. In practice this results in the leaf vdevs being under utilized. Utilization can be improved by preferentially selecting the leaf vdev with the least pending IO. This prevents leaf vdevs from being starved and compensates for performance differences between disks in the mirror. Faster vdevs will be sent more work and the mirror performance will not be limitted by the slowest drive. In the common case where all the pending queues are full and there is no single least busy leaf vdev a batching stratagy is employed. Of the N least busy vdevs one is selected with equal probability to be the preferred vdev for T microseconds. Compared to randomly selecting a vdev to break the tie batching the requests greatly improves the odds of merging the requests in the Linux elevator. The testing results show a significant performance improvement for all four workloads tested. The workloads were generated using the fio benchmark and are as follows. 1) 1MB sequential reads from 16 threads to 16 files (MB/s). 2) 4KB sequential reads from 16 threads to 16 files (MB/s). 3) 1MB random reads from 16 threads to 16 files (IOP/s). 4) 4KB random reads from 16 threads to 16 files (IOP/s). | Pristine | With 1461 | | Sequential Random | Sequential Random | | 1MB 4KB 1MB 4KB | 1MB 4KB 1MB 4KB | | MB/s MB/s IO/s IO/s | MB/s MB/s IO/s IO/s | ---------------+-----------------------+------------------------+ 2 Striped | 226 243 11 304 | 222 255 11 299 | 2 2-Way Mirror | 302 324 16 534 | 433 448 23 571 | 2 3-Way Mirror | 429 458 24 714 | 648 648 41 808 | 2 4-Way Mirror | 562 601 36 849 | 816 828 82 926 | Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #1461

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Differences between how paging is done on Solaris and Linux can cause deadlocks if KM_SLEEP is used in any the following contexts. * The txg_sync thread * The zvol write/discard threads * The zpl_putpage() VFS callback This is because KM_SLEEP will allow for direct reclaim which may result in the VM calling back in to the filesystem or block layer to write out pages. If a lock is held over this operation the potential exists to deadlock the system. To ensure forward progress all memory allocations in these contexts must us KM_PUSHPAGE which disables performing any I/O to accomplish the memory allocation. Previously, this behavior was acheived by setting PF_MEMALLOC on the thread. However, that resulted in unexpected side effects such as the exhaustion of pages in ZONE_DMA. This approach touchs more of the zfs code, but it is more consistent with the right way to handle these cases under Linux.
