bio: limit bio max size
bio size can grow up to 4GB when muli-page bvec is enabled. but sometimes it would lead to inefficient behaviors. in case of large chunk direct I/O, - 32MB chunk read in user space - all pages for 32MB would be merged to a bio structure if the pages physical addresses are contiguous. it makes some delay to submit until merge complete. bio max size should be limited to a proper size. When 32MB chunk read with direct I/O option is coming from userspace, kernel behavior is below now in do_direct_IO() loop. it's timeline. | bio merge for 32MB. total 8,192 pages are merged. | total elapsed time is over 2ms. |------------------ ... ----------------------->| | 8,192 pages merged a bio. | at this time, first bio submit is done. | 1 bio is split to 32 read request and issue. |---------------> |---------------> |---------------> ...... |---------------> |--------------->| total 19ms elapsed to complete 32MB read done from device. | If bio max size is limited with 1MB, behavior is changed below. | bio merge for 1MB. 256 pages are merged for each bio. | total 32 bio will be made. | total elapsed time is over 2ms. it's same. | but, first bio submit timing is fast. about 100us. |--->|--->|--->|---> ... -->|--->|--->|--->|--->| | 256 pages merged a bio. | at this time, first bio submit is done. | and 1 read request is issued for 1 bio. |---------------> |---------------> |---------------> ...... |---------------> |--------------->| total 17ms elapsed to complete 32MB read done from device. | As a result, read request issue timing is faster if bio max size is limited. Current kernel behavior with multipage bvec, super large bio can be created. And it lead to delay first I/O request issue.
