Subject: [RFC PATCHv5 6/7] nvme-multipath: add debugfs attribute adaptive_stat
Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2025 16:03:25 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251105103347.86059-7-nilay@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251105103347.86059-1-nilay@linux.ibm.com>
This commit introduces a new debugfs attribute, "adaptive_stat", under
both per-path and head debugfs directories (defined under /sys/kernel/
debug/block/). This attribute provides visibility into the internal
state of the adaptive I/O policy to aid in debugging and performance
analysis.
For per-path entries, "adaptive_stat" reports the corresponding path
statistics such as I/O weight, selection count, processed samples, and
ignored samples.
For head entries, it reports per-CPU statistics for each reachable path,
including I/O weight, path score, smoothed (EWMA) latency, selection
count, processed samples, and ignored samples.
These additions enhance observability of the adaptive I/O path selection
behavior and help diagnose imbalance or instability in multipath
performance.
