[f2fs-dev] [PATCH] f2fs: optimize f2fs DIO overwrites

[f2fs-dev] [PATCH] f2fs: optimize f2fs DIO overwrites

[Yohan Joung]

this is unnecessary when we know we are overwriting already allocated
blocks and the overhead of starting a transaction can be significant
especially for multithreaded workloads doing small writes.

Hi Yohan,

So you're trying to avoid f2fs_map_lock() in dio write path, right?

Thanks,

I think we can add the overwrite check in f2fs_iomap_begin() before
setting the map.m_may_create, instead of adding a new function
f2fs_iomap_overwrite_begin().
What do you think?

I think we can add the overwrite check in f2fs_iomap_begin() before
setting the map.m_may_create, instead of adding a new function
f2fs_iomap_overwrite_begin().
What do you think?

Daeho, Is this the way you want it changed? If so, I'll upload it like this 
static int f2fs_iomap_begin(struct inode *inode, loff_t offset, loff_t length,
			    unsigned int flags, struct iomap *iomap,
			    struct iomap *srcmap)
{
	struct f2fs_map_blocks map = {};
	pgoff_t next_pgofs = 0;
	int err;

	map.m_lblk = F2FS_BYTES_TO_BLK(offset);
	map.m_len = F2FS_BYTES_TO_BLK(offset + length - 1) - map.m_lblk + 1;
	map.m_next_pgofs = &next_pgofs;
	map.m_seg_type = f2fs_rw_hint_to_seg_type(F2FS_I_SB(inode),
						inode->i_write_hint);
	if ((flags & IOMAP_WRITE) && !f2fs_overwrite_io(inode, offset, length))
		map.m_may_create = true;
