btrfs: do not pin logs too early during renames
During renames we pin the logs of the roots a bit too early, before the
calls to btrfs_insert_inode_ref(). We can pin the logs after those calls,
since those will not change anything in a log tree.
In a scenario where we have multiple and diverse filesystem operations
running in parallel, those calls can take a significant amount of time,
due to lock contention on extent buffers, and delay log commits from other
tasks for longer than necessary.
So just pin logs after calls to btrfs_insert_inode_ref() and right before
the first operation that can update a log tree.
The following script that uses dbench was used for testing:
$ cat dbench-test.sh
#!/bin/bash
DEV=/dev/nvme0n1
MNT=/mnt/nvme0n1
MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o ssd"
MKFS_OPTIONS="-m single -d single"
echo "performance" | tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
umount $DEV &> /dev/null
mkfs.btrfs -f $MKFS_OPTIONS $DEV
mount $MOUNT_OPTIONS $DEV $MNT
dbench -D $MNT -t 120 16
umount $MNT
The tests were run on a machine with 12 cores, 64G of RAN, a NVMe device
and using a non-debug kernel config (Debian's default config).
The results compare a branch without this patch and without the previous
patch in the series, that has the subject:
"btrfs: eliminate some false positives when checking if inode was logged"
Versus the same branch with these two patches applied.
