Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 8/8] SUNRPC: Reduce xprtiod workqueue contention
Date: Wed, 02 Sep 2026 15:28:53 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260902-performance-v2-8-b71c0c082f9d@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260902-performance-v2-0-b71c0c082f9d@kernel.org>

xprtiod handles transport-level operations: socket receive
processing, error recovery, and connection lifecycle. On systems
driving heavy NFS traffic, these operations contend on the UNBOUND
worker pool lock just as rpciod does.

Set WQ_AFFN_SMT on the xprtiod workqueue to give each SMT group its
own pool and lock.
