Btrfs: more efficient btrfs_drop_extent_cache
While droping extent map structures from the extent cache that cover our target range, we would remove each extent map structure from the red black tree and then add either 1 or 2 new extent map structures if the former extent map covered sections outside our target range. This change simply attempts to replace the existing extent map structure with a new one that covers the subsection we're not interested in, instead of doing a red black remove operation followed by an insertion operation. The number of elements in an inode's extent map tree can get very high for large files under random writes. For example, while running the following test: sysbench --test=fileio --file-num=1 --file-total-size=10G \ --file-test-mode=rndrw --num-threads=32 --file-block-size=32768 \ --max-requests=500000 --file-rw-ratio=2 [prepare|run] I captured the following histogram capturing the number of extent_map items in the red black tree while that test was running: Count: 122462 Range: 1.000 - 172231.000; Mean: 96415.831; Median: 101855.000; Stddev: 49700.981 Percentiles: 90th: 160120.000; 95th: 166335.000; 99th: 171070.000 1.000 - 5.231: 452 | 5.231 - 187.392: 87 | 187.392 - 585.911: 206 | 585.911 - 1827.438: 623 | 1827.438 - 5695.245: 1962 # 5695.245 - 17744.861: 6204 #### 17744.861 - 55283.764: 21115 ############ 55283.764 - 172231.000: 91813 ##################################################### Benchmark: sysbench --test=fileio --file-num=1 --file-total-size=10G --file-test-mode=rndwr \ --num-threads=64 --file-block-size=32768 --max-requests=0 --max-time=60 \ --file-io-mode=sync --file-fsync-freq=0 [prepare|run] Before this change: 122.1Mb/sec After this change: 125.07Mb/sec (averages of 5 test runs) Test machine: quad core intel i5-3570K, 32Gb of ram, SSD Signed-off-by: Filipe David Borba Manana <fdmanana@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fb.com>
