[ Upstream commit 67205f80be ]
By default, non-mq drivers do not support nowait. This causes io_uring
to use a slower path as the driver cannot be trust not to block. brd
can safely set the nowait flag, as worst case all it does is a NOIO
allocation.
For io_uring, this makes a substantial difference. Before:
submitter=0, tid=453, file=/dev/ram0, node=-1
polled=0, fixedbufs=1/0, register_files=1, buffered=0, QD=128
Engine=io_uring, sq_ring=128, cq_ring=128
IOPS=440.03K, BW=1718MiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
IOPS=428.96K, BW=1675MiB/s, IOS/call=32/32
IOPS=442.59K, BW=1728MiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
IOPS=419.65K, BW=1639MiB/s, IOS/call=32/32
IOPS=426.82K, BW=1667MiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
and after:
submitter=0, tid=354, file=/dev/ram0, node=-1
polled=0, fixedbufs=1/0, register_files=1, buffered=0, QD=128
Engine=io_uring, sq_ring=128, cq_ring=128
IOPS=3.37M, BW=13.15GiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
IOPS=3.45M, BW=13.46GiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
IOPS=3.43M, BW=13.42GiB/s, IOS/call=32/32
IOPS=3.43M, BW=13.39GiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
IOPS=3.43M, BW=13.38GiB/s, IOS/call=32/31
or about an 8x in difference. Now that brd is prepared to deal with
REQ_NOWAIT reads/writes, mark it as supporting that.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
