[dm-devel] [PATCH] dm-zoned: remove leftover hunk for switching to sequential zones

2020-05-22 Thread Hannes Reinecke
Remove a leftover hunk to switch from sequential zones to random zones when selecting a reclaim zone; the logic has moved into the caller and this patch is now pointless. Fixes: 34f5affd04c4 ("dm zoned: separate random and cache zones") Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke unmap_rnd_list) { -

[dm-devel] [PATCH 12/12] dm-zoned: per-device reclaim

2020-05-22 Thread Hannes Reinecke
Instead of having one reclaim workqueue for the entire set we should be allocating a reclaim workqueue per device; that will reduce contention and should boost performance for a multi-device setup. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke --- drivers/md/dm-zoned-reclaim.c | 70

[dm-devel] [PATCH 08/12] dm-zoned: move random and sequential zones into struct dmz_dev

Random and sequential zones should be part of the respective device structure to make arbitration between devices possible. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke --- drivers/md/dm-zoned-metadata.c | 143 + drivers/md/dm-zoned.h | 10 +++ 2 files

[dm-devel] [PATCH 10/12] dm-zoned: support arbitrary number of devices

2020-05-22 Thread Hannes Reinecke
Remove the hard-coded limit of two devices and support an unlimited number of additional zoned devices. With that we need to increase the device-mapper version number to 3.0.0 as we've modified the interface. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke --- drivers/md/dm-zoned-metadata.c | 68

[dm-devel] [PATCH 04/12] dm-zoned: secondary superblock must reside on the same devices than primary superblock

2020-05-22 Thread Hannes Reinecke
The secondary superblock must reside on the same device than the primary superblock, so there's no need to re-calculate the device. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke --- drivers/md/dm-zoned-metadata.c | 5 ++--- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git

[dm-devel] [PATCH 03/12] dm-zoned: use on-stack superblock for tertiary devices

2020-05-22 Thread Hannes Reinecke
Checking the teriary superblock just consists of validating UUIDs, crcs, and the generation number; it doesn't have contents which would be required during the actual operation. So we should use an on-stack superblock and avoid having to store it together with the 'real' superblocks.

[dm-devel] [PATCH 11/12] dm-zoned: round-robin load balancer for reclaiming zones

2020-05-22 Thread Hannes Reinecke
When reclaiming zones we should arbitrate between the zoned devices to get a better throughput. So implement a simple round-robin load balancer between the zoned devices. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke --- drivers/md/dm-zoned-metadata.c | 8 +++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1

Hi all, on the risk of boring you to death, here's yet another RFC to update dm-zoned. As it has seen only light testing and has some areas which need to be improved I'd consider it RFC material. I'm just putting it out now to get some feedback and get it ready for the next merge window. So,
