freebsd kernel with SKQ
b54e25cf10
Using a benchmark which has 32 threads creating 2 million files in the same directory, on a machine with 16 CPU cores, I observed poor performance. I noticed that dmu_tx_hold_zap() was using about 30% of all CPU, and doing dnode_hold() 7 times on the same object (the ZAP object that is being held). dmu_tx_hold_zap() keeps a hold on the dnode_t the entire time it is running, in dmu_tx_hold_t:txh_dnode, so it would be nice to use the dnode_t that we already have in hand, rather than repeatedly calling dnode_hold(). To do this, we need to pass the dnode_t down through all the intermediate calls that dmu_tx_hold_zap() makes, making these routines take the dnode_t* rather than an objset_t* and a uint64_t object number. In particular, the following routines will need to have analogous *_by_dnode() variants created: dmu_buf_hold_noread() dmu_buf_hold() zap_lookup() zap_lookup_norm() zap_count_write() zap_lockdir() zap_count_write() This can improve performance on the benchmark described above by 100%, from 30,000 file creations per second to 60,000. (This improvement is on top of that provided by working around the object allocation issue. Peak performance of ~90,000 creations per second was observed with 8 CPUs; adding CPUs past that decreased performance due to lock contention.) The CPU used by dmu_tx_hold_zap() was reduced by 88%, from 340 CPU-seconds to 40 CPU-seconds. Sponsored by: Intel Corp.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
