[PATCH v8 0/2] nvme: queue-depth multipath iopolicy

[John Meneghini]

I've addressed all of Christoph's review comments and rebased this to
the latest nvme-6.11 branch. I also retested everything. The test
results can be seen at: 

https://github.com/johnmeneghini/iopolicy/?tab=readme-ov-file#sample-data

Please add this to nvme-6.11.

Changes since V7

Broke the changes to nvme_find_path() into a prepare patch.
This made the patch much more readable. Removed the WARN_ON_ONCE
in nvme_mpath_end_request() and changed the pr_notice message
in nvme_subsys_iopolicy_update().

Changes since V6:

Cleanup tab formatting in nvme.h and removed extra white lines.
Removed the results variable from nvme_mpath_end_request(). 

Changes since V5:

Refactored nvme_find_path() to reduce the spaghetti code.
Cleaned up all comments and reduced the total size of the 
diff, and fixed the commit message. Thomas Song now 
gets credit as the first author.

Changes since V4:

Removed atomic_set() from and return if (old_iopolicy == iopolicy)
At the beginning of nvme_subsys_iopolicy_update().

Changes since V3:

Addresssed all review comments, fixed the commit log, and moved
nr_counter initialization from nvme_mpath_init_ctlr() to
nvme_mpath_init_identify().

Changes since V2:

Add the NVME_MPATH_CNT_ACTIVE flag to eliminate a READ_ONCE in the
completion path and increment/decrement the active_nr count on all mpath
IOs - including passthru commands.

Send a pr_notice when ever the iopolicy on a subsystem is changed. This
is important for support reasons. It is fully expected that users will
be changing the iopolicy with active IO in progress.

Squashed everything and rebased to nvme-v6.10

Changes since V1:

I'm re-issuing Ewan's queue-depth patches in preparation for LSFMM

These patches were first show at ALPSS 2023 where I shared the following
graphs which measure the IO distribution across 4 active-optimized
controllers using the round-robin verses queue-depth iopolicy.

 https://people.redhat.com/jmeneghi/ALPSS_2023/NVMe_QD_Multipathing.pdf

Since that time we have continued testing these patches with a number of
different nvme-of storage arrays and test bed configurations, and I've
codified the tests and methods we use to measure IO distribution

All of my test results, together with the scripts I used to generate these
graphs, are available at:

 https://github.com/johnmeneghini/iopolicy

Please use the scripts in this repository to do your own testing.

These patches are based on nvme-v6.9

[PATCH v8 1/2] nvme-multipath: prepare for "queue-depth" iopolicy

[John Meneghini]

This patch prepares for the introduction of a new iopolicy by breaking up
the nvme_find_path() code path into sub-routines.

[PATCH v8 2/2] nvme-multipath: implement "queue-depth" iopolicy

[John Meneghini]

From: Thomas Song <tsong@purestorage.com>

The round-robin path selector is inefficient in cases where there is a
difference in latency between paths.  In the presence of one or more
high latency paths the round-robin selector continues to use the high
latency path equally. This results in a bias towards the highest latency
path and can cause a significant decrease in overall performance as IOs
pile on the highest latency path. This problem is acute with NVMe-oF
controllers.

The queue-depth path selector sends I/O down the path with the lowest
number of requests in its request queue. Paths with lower latency will
clear requests more quickly and have less requests queued compared to
higher latency paths. The goal of this path selector is to make more use
of lower latency paths which will bring down overall IO latency and
increase throughput and performance.

nit:- above looks little bit odd with long line, I'd just :-

         old = srcu_dereference(head->current_path[node], &head->srcu);
         if (unlikely(!old))
                 return __nvme_find_path(head, node);
