Subject: [PATCH 0/4] block: account io: kill atomic operations
Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2015 11:16:43 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1437016607-375-1-git-send-email-tom.leiming@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

This patches kills two kinds of atomic operations in block
accounting I/O.

The 1st two patches convert atomic refcount of partition
into percpu refcount.

The 2nd two patches converts partition->in_flight[] into percpu
variable.

With this change, ~15% throughput improvement can be observed
when running fio(randread) over null blk in a dual-socket
environment.
