Subject: FIXED! [was: awful request merge results while simulating high IOPS] multipath
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2015 23:38:08 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150225043808.GA14060@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150225005608.GA13348@redhat.com>

New multipath results using these 2 additional DM patches:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm.git/commit/?h=for-next&id=d379ecbac533d3ac45c7f155b1fc1b760abace6e

(the important one being the last patch, thanks to Jens for the suggestion!)

Both deadline and noop schedulers work really well this fio test now
(cfq is slightly slower):

[64_seq_write]
#filename=/dev/mapper/skd_mpath
filename=/dev/dm-7
rw=write
rwmixread=0
blocksize=4k
iodepth=16
direct=1
numjobs=64
runtime=100
ioengine=libaio
time_based

deadline:
---------
Run status group 0 (all jobs):
  WRITE: io=64402MB, aggrb=659426KB/s, minb=8960KB/s, maxb=10348KB/s, mint=100001msec, maxt=100007msec

Disk stats (read/write):
    dm-7: ios=78/951571, merge=0/14721874, ticks=1/6766375, in_queue=6868921, util=100.00%, aggrios=257/951897, aggrmerge=0/0, aggrticks=3/3467932, aggrin_queue=3467835, aggrutil=99.09%
  skd0: ios=257/951897, merge=0/0, ticks=3/3467932, in_queue=3467835, util=99.09%

(deadline is _really_ fast with this test now, noop is fast too, see below)
