There will be IO performance degradation in the following scenarios: -The space utilization rate remains below 80%(e.g. 79%) -There are many big discard commands generated -Always have read and write IO generated
The performance degradation is due to a large number of undiscard blocks while the space occupancy rate is high. Space utilization is always lower than discard_urgent_util, so discard thread is not running at min_discard_issue_time interval. Since there are not many discard cmds, the !f2fs_available_free_memory(DISCARD_CACHE) condition is not met, and there is no chance to execute the DPOLICY_FORCE strategy. By adjusting discard_io_aware_gran, the accumulation of discard can be prevented, but this will affect the normal read and write IO. This patch introduces another solution. By considering the space utilization and the proportion of undiscard blocks, reducing the running cycle of the discard thread, and reducing the granularity of the discard cmd.
