fsverity: Remove WQ_UNBOUND from fsverity read workqueue
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.177 commit e66f3039c7922cc76ec555363f3e2a4cd224397d category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I88YNP Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=e66f3039c7922cc76ec555363f3e2a4cd224397d -------------------------------- commit f959325e upstream. WQ_UNBOUND causes significant scheduler latency on ARM64/Android. This is problematic for latency sensitive workloads, like I/O post-processing. Removing WQ_UNBOUND gives a 96% reduction in fsverity workqueue related scheduler latency and improves app cold startup times by ~30ms. WQ_UNBOUND was also removed from the dm-verity workqueue for the same reason [1]. This code was tested by running Android app startup benchmarks and measuring how long the fsverity workqueue spent in the runnable state. Before Total workqueue scheduler latency: 553800us After Total workqueue scheduler latency: 18962us [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230202012348.885402-1-nhuck@google.com/ Signed-off-by:Nathan Huckleberry <nhuck@google.com> Fixes: 8a1d0f9c ("fs-verity: add data verification hooks for ->readpages()") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230310193325.620493-1-nhuck@google.com Signed-off-by:
