[patch 1/4 v2] percpu_ida: make percpu_ida percpu size/batch configurable

From: Shaohua Li
Date: Mon Oct 14 2013 - 21:08:07 EST


Make percpu_ida percpu size/batch configurable. The block-mq-tag will use it.

After block-mq uses percpu_ida to manage tags, performance is improved. My test
is done in a 2 sockets machine, 12 process cross the 2 sockets. So if there is
lock contention or ipi, should be stressed heavily. Testing is done for
null-blk.

2048 ~4470k/s ~4340k/s
