Subject: [PATCH 0/7] Performance improvements for LSI SCSI cards
Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2014 16:40:29 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1395952569.git.matthew.r.wilcox@intel.com> (raw)
The host lock is a serious scalability problem on 2-socket and larger
systems which are doing a lot of I/O. Before removing the temporary
usgae of DEF_SCSI_QCMD, we need to remove all uses of serial_number.
An unrelated performance issue is that reusing the most recent
driver-specific data structure to track the I/O instead of the least
recently used keeps the cache-hot lines in use, which is a nice
performance improvement. It's already present in the mpt3sas driver,
it just didn't make it into the fusion or mpt2sas drivers yet.
Matthew Wilcox (7):
mpt3sas: Remove uses of serial_number
mpt3sas: Remove use of DEF_SCSI_QCMD
mpt2sas: Remove uses of serial_number
mpt2sas: Remove use of DEF_SCSI_QCMD
mpt2sas: Add free smids to the head, not tail of list
fusion: Add free msg frames to the head, not tail of list
fusion: Remove use of DEF_SCSI_QCMD
