In the write path, after the write to the block device(s) complete we have to punt to process context to do the btree update. Instead of using the work item embedded in op->cl, this patch switches to a per write-point work item. This helps with two different issues: - lock contention: btree updates to the same writepoint will (usually) be updating the same alloc keys - context switch overhead: when we're bottlenecked on btree updates, having a thread (running out of a work item) checking the write point for completed ops is cheaper than queueing up a new work item and waking up a kworker. In an arbitrary benchmark, 4k random writes with fio running inside a VM, this patch resulted in a 10% improvement in total iops. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@linux.dev> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
