Subject: [PATCH 2/2] scsi:target:tcmu: reduce once copy by using uio ioctl

Currently the data needs to be copied twice between sg, tcmu data area and
userspace buffer if backstore holds its own userspace buffer, then we can
use uio ioctl to copy data between sg and userspace buffer directly to
bypass data area to improve performance.

Use tcm_loop and tcmu(backstore is file) to evaluate performance,
fio job: fio -filename=/dev/sdb -direct=1 -size=2G -name=1 -thread
-runtime=60 -time_based -rw=randread -numjobs=16 -iodepth=16 -bs=128k

Sorry, I don't quite understand your comments well, can you explain more
why this structure
does not work, except that "unsigned short" or "unsigned long" here
isn't correct, should use
u16 or u32.
Syscalls, such as readv/preadv also pass a struct iovec from user to
kernel, thanks.

__u32 and __u16 must be used for structures like this. Also it's
unaligned and has a hole in it, and will cause problems with compilers.
You didn't try this on a 32/64bit system either :(

That is no way to define a structure that crosses the user/kernel
boundry, it just will not work at all, even if we wanted it to :(

Liu,

generally I like ideas to speed up tcmu.

OTOH, since Andy Grover implemented tcmu based on uio device, we are
restricted to what uio offers. With today's knowledge I think we would
not use the uio device in tcmu again, but switching away from uio now
would break existing userspace SW.

Before we start thinking how the same performance gain could be reached
without a change in uio device, please let me know why you use file
backend on top of tcmu instead of target_core_file kernel module?
Wouldn't target_core_file be even faster for your purpose?

Bodo

Yeah, it will have much work if deciding to switch away from uio.
I came up with a hacky or crazy idea :) what about we create a new file
in tcmu_open() by anon_inode_getfile_secure(), and export this fd by
tcmu mail box, we can do ioctl() on this new file, then uio framework
won't be touched...

static int tcmu_open(struct uio_info *info, struct inode *inode)
{
        struct tcmu_dev *udev = container_of(info, struct tcmu_dev,
uio_info);
