find_next_iomem_res() shows up to be a source for overhead in dax benchmarks. Improve performance by not considering children of the tree if the top level does not match. Since the range of the parents should include the range of the children such check is redundant. Running sysbench on dax (pmem emulation, with write_cache disabled): sysbench fileio --file-total-size=3G --file-test-mode=rndwr \ --file-io-mode=mmap --threads=4 --file-fsync-mode=fdatasync run Provides the following results: events (avg/stddev) ------------------- 5.2-rc3: 1247669.0000/16075.39 w/patch: 1286320.5000/16402.72 (+3%) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190613045903.4922-3-namit@vmware.com Signed-off-by: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Cc: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hpe.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
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.
