fuse: add max_pages to init_out
Replace FUSE_MAX_PAGES_PER_REQ with the configurable parameter max_pages to improve performance. Old RFC with detailed description of the problem and many fixes by Mitsuo Hayasaka (mitsuo.hayasaka.hu@hitachi.com): - https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/5/136 We've encountered performance degradation and fixed it on a big and complex virtual environment. Environment to reproduce degradation and improvement: 1. Add lag to user mode FUSE Add nanosleep(&(struct timespec){ 0, 1000 }, NULL); to xmp_write_buf in passthrough_fh.c 2. patch UM fuse with configurable max_pages parameter. The patch will be provided latter. 3. run test script and perform test on tmpfs fuse_test() { cd /tmp mkdir -p fusemnt passthrough_fh -o max_pages=$1 /tmp/fusemnt grep fuse /proc/self/mounts dd conv=fdatasync oflag=dsync if=/dev/zero of=fusemnt/tmp/tmp \ count=1K bs=1M 2>&1 | grep -v records rm fusemnt/tmp/tmp killall passthrough_fh } Test results: passthrough_fh /tmp/fusemnt fuse.passthrough_fh \ rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0 0 0 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 1.73867 s, 618 MB/s passthrough_fh /tmp/fusemnt fuse.passthrough_fh \ rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,max_pages=256 0 0 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 1.15643 s, 928 MB/s Obviously with bigger lag the difference between 'before' and 'after' will be more significant. Mitsuo Hayasaka, in 2012 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/5/136), observed improvement from 400-550 to 520-740.
