[PATCH v2 2/2] iommu/iova: enhance the rcache optimization

From: Zhen Lei
Date: Thu Aug 15 2019 - 08:11:55 EST


The rcache method caches the freed IOVAs, to improve the performance of
IOVAs allocation and release. This is usually okay, but it maybe declined
in some special scenarios.

For example, currently the IOVA_RANGE_CACHE_MAX_SIZE is 6, and for ecch
size, contains: MAX_GLOBAL_MAGS=32 shareable depot magazines, each vcpu
has two magazines(cpu_rcaches->loaded and cpu_rcaches->prev). In an
extreme case, it can max cache ((num_possible_cpus() * 2 + 32) * 128 * 6)
IOVAs, it's very large. The worst case happens when the depot magazines
of a certain size(usually 4K) is full, further free_iova_fast() invoking
will cause iova_magazine_free_pfns() to be called. As the above saied,
too many IOVAs buffered, so that the RB tree is very large, the
iova_magazine_free_pfns()-->private_find_iova(), and the missed iova
allocation: alloc_iova()-->__alloc_and_insert_iova_range() will spend too
much time. And that the current rcache method have no cleanup operation,
the buffered IOVAs will only increase but not decrease.

For my FIO stress test scenario, the performance drop about 35%, and can
not recover even if re-execute the test cases.
Jobs: 21 (f=21): [2.3% done] [8887M/0K /s] [2170K/0 iops]
Jobs: 21 (f=21): [2.3% done] [8902M/0K /s] [2173K/0 iops]
Jobs: 21 (f=21): [2.3% done] [6010M/0K /s] [1467K/0 iops]
Jobs: 21 (f=21): [2.3% done] [5397M/0K /s] [1318K/0 iops]

So that, I add the statistic about the rcache, when the above case
happened, release the IOVAs which are not hit.
Jobs: 21 (f=21): [100.0% done] [10324M/0K /s] [2520K/0 iops]
Jobs: 21 (f=21): [100.0% done] [10290M/0K /s] [2512K/0 iops]
Jobs: 21 (f=21): [100.0% done] [10035M/0K /s] [2450K/0 iops]
Jobs: 21 (f=21): [100.0% done] [10214M/0K /s] [2494K/0 iops]
