[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] migration/block: Avoid involve into blk_drain too frequently
Posted by jemmy858585@gmail.com 7 years, 1 month ago
From: Lidong Chen <jemmy858585@gmail.com>

Increase bmds->cur_dirty after submit io, so reduce the frequency involve into blk_drain, and improve the performance obviously when block migration.

Long line; please wrap your commit messages, preferably around 70 bytes
since 'git log' displays them indented, and it is still nice to read
them in an 80-column window.

Do you have benchmark numbers to prove the impact of this patch, or even
a formula for reproducing the benchmark testing?

the test result is base on current git master version.

the xml of guest os:
    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none'/>
      <source file='/instanceimage/ab3ba978-c7a3-463d-a1d0-48649fb7df00/ab3ba978-c7a3-463d-a1d0-48649fb7df00_vda.qcow2'/>
      <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
      <alias name='virtio-disk0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x04'
function='0x0'/>
    </disk>
    <disk type='block' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none' io='native'/>
      <source dev='/dev/domu/ab3ba978-c7a3-463d-a1d0-48649fb7df00_vdb'/>
      <target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/>
      <alias name='virtio-disk1'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05'
function='0x0'/>
    </disk>

i used fio running in guest os.  and the context of  fio configuration is below:
[randwrite]
ioengine=libaio
iodepth=128
bs=512
filename=/dev/vdb
rw=randwrite
direct=1

when the vm is not durning migrate, the iops is about 10.7K.

then i used this command to start migrate virtual machine.

virsh migrate-setspeed ab3ba978-c7a3-463d-a1d0-48649fb7df00 1000
virsh migrate --live ab3ba978-c7a3-463d-a1d0-48649fb7df00
--copy-storage-inc qemu+ssh://10.59.163.38/system

before apply this patch, during the block dirty save phase, the iops
in guest os is  only 4.0K, the migrate speed is about 505856 rsec/s.
after apply this patch, during the block dirty save phase, the iops in
guest os is is 9.5K. the migrate speed is about 855756 rsec/s.

with old version qemu(1.2.0), call bdrv_drain_all function to wait aio
complete, before apply this patch, the result is worse.
because the main thread is block by bdrv_drain_all for a long time,
the vnc is becoming response very slowly.
this bug is only obvious when set the migrate speed with a big number.
