NFS has some optimizations for readdir to choose between using READDIR or READDIRPLUS based on workload, and which NFS operation to use is determined by subsequent interactions with lookup, d_revalidate, and getattr. Concurrent use of nfs_readdir() via ->iterate_shared() can cause those optimizations to repeatedly invalidate the pagecache used to store directory entries during readdir(), which causes some very bad performance for directories with many entries (more than about 10000). There's a couple ways to fix this in NFS, but no fix would be as simple as going back to ->iterate() to serialize nfs_readdir(), and neither fix I tested performed as well as going back to ->iterate(). The first required taking the directory's i_lock for each entry, with the result of terrible contention. The second way adds another flag to the nfs_inode, and so keeps the optimizations working for large directories. The difference from using ->iterate() here is that much more memory is consumed for a given workload without any performance gain. The workings of nfs_readdir() are such that concurrent users are serialized within read_cache_page() waiting to retrieve pages of entries from the server. By serializing this work in iterate_dir() instead, contention for cache pages is reduced. Waiting processes can have an uncontended pass at the entirety of the directory's pagecache once previous processes have completed filling it. v2 - Keep the bits needed for parallel lookup Signed-off-by: Benjamin Coddington <bcodding@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
