[Drbd-dev] [PATCH 22/38] drbd: Create a dedicated workqueue for sending acks on the control connection
Philipp Reisner
philipp.reisner at linbit.com
Wed Nov 25 11:53:55 CET 2015
The intention is to reduce CPU utilization. Recent measurements
unveiled that the current performance bottleneck is CPU utilization
on the receiving node. The asender thread became CPU limited.
One of the main points is to eliminate the idr_for_each_entry() loop
from the sending acks code path.
One exception in that is sending back ping_acks. These stay
in the ack-receiver thread. Otherwise the logic becomes too
complicated for no added value.
