Using per-cpu thread pool we can reduce the scheduling latency compared to workqueue implementation. With this patch scheduling latency and variation is reduced as per-cpu threads are high priority kthread_workers. The results were evaluated on arm64 Android devices running 5.10 kernel. The table below shows resulting improvements of total scheduling latency for the same app launch benchmark runs with 50 iterations. Scheduling latency is the latency between when the task (workqueue kworker vs kthread_worker) became eligible to run to when it actually started running. +-------------------------+-----------+----------------+---------+ | | workqueue | kthread_worker | diff | +-------------------------+-----------+----------------+---------+ | Average (us) | 15253 | 2914 | -80.89% | | Median (us) | 14001 | 2912 | -79.20% | | Minimum (us) | 3117 | 1027 | -67.05% | | Maximum (us) | 30170 | 3805 | -87.39% | | Standard deviation (us) | 7166 | 359 | | +-------------------------+-----------+----------------+---------+ Background: Boot times and cold app launch benchmarks are very important to the Android ecosystem as they directly translate to responsiveness from user point of view. While EROFS provides a lot of important features like space savings, we saw some performance penalty in cold app launch benchmarks in few scenarios. Analysis showed that the significant variance was coming from the scheduling cost while decompression cost was more or less the same. Having per-cpu thread pool we can see from the above table that this variation is reduced by ~80% on average. This problem was discussed at LPC 2022.

EROFS (Enhanced Read-Only File System) is a lightweight read-only
|
|
file system with modern designs (e.g. no buffer heads, inline
|
|
xattrs/data, chunk-based deduplication, multiple devices, etc.) for
|
|
scenarios which need high-performance read-only solutions, e.g.
|
|
smartphones with Android OS, LiveCDs and high-density hosts with
|
|
numerous containers;
|
|
|
|
It also provides fixed-sized output compression support in order to
|
|
improve storage density as well as keep relatively higher compression
|
|
ratios and implements in-place decompression to reuse the file page
|
|
for compressed data temporarily with proper strategies, which is
|
|
quite useful to ensure guaranteed end-to-end runtime decompression
|
|
performance under extremely memory pressure without extra cost.

Saying Y here includes support for reading EROFS file systems

LZMA support is an experimental feature for now and so most file
