btrfs: improve delayed refs iterations
This issue was found when I tried to delete a heavily reflinked file,
when deleting such files, other transaction operation will not have a
chance to make progress, for example, start_transaction() will blocked
in wait_current_trans(root) for long time, sometimes it even triggers
soft lockups, and the time taken to delete such heavily reflinked file
is also very large, often hundreds of seconds. Using perf top, it reports
that:
PerfTop: 7416 irqs/sec kernel:99.8% exact: 0.0% [4000Hz cpu-clock], (all, 4 CPUs)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
84.37% [btrfs] [k] __btrfs_run_delayed_refs.constprop.80
11.02% [kernel] [k] delay_tsc
0.79% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irq
0.78% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore
0.45% [kernel] [k] do_raw_spin_lock
0.18% [kernel] [k] __slab_alloc
It seems __btrfs_run_delayed_refs() took most cpu time, after some debug
work, I found it's select_delayed_ref() causing this issue, for a delayed
head, in our case, it'll be full of BTRFS_DROP_DELAYED_REF nodes, but
select_delayed_ref() will firstly try to iterate node list to find
BTRFS_ADD_DELAYED_REF nodes, obviously it's a disaster in this case, and
waste much time.
To fix this issue, we introduce a new ref_add_list in struct btrfs_delayed_ref_head,
then in select_delayed_ref(), if this list is not empty, we can directly use
nodes in this list. With this patch, it just took about 10~15 seconds to
delte the same file. Now using perf top, it reports that:
PerfTop: 2734 irqs/sec kernel:99.5% exact: 0.0% [4000Hz cpu-clock], (all, 4 CPUs)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
20.74% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore
16.33% [kernel] [k] __slab_alloc
5.41% [kernel] [k] lock_acquired
4.42% [kernel] [k] lock_acquire
4.05% [kernel] [k] lock_release
3.37% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irq
For normal files, this patch also gives help, at least we do not need to
iterate whole list to found BTRFS_ADD_DELAYED_REF nodes.
