There are complaints that raid0 discard handling is slow. Currently we divide discard request into chunks and dispatch to underlayer disks. The block layer will do merge to form big requests. This causes a lot of request split/merge and uses significant CPU time. A simple idea is to calculate the range for each raid disk for an IO request and send a discard request to raid disks, which will avoid the split/merge completely. Previously Coly tried the approach, but the implementation was too complex because of raid0 zones. This patch always split bio in zone boundary and handle bio within one zone. It simplifies the implementation a lot. Reviewed-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Acked-by: Coly Li <colyli@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.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.
