Alexander Motin 40ea77a036 Merge GEOM direct dispatch changes from the projects/camlock branch. ... When safety requirements are met, it allows to avoid passing I/O requests to GEOM g_up/g_down thread, executing them directly in the caller context. That allows to avoid CPU bottlenecks in g_up/g_down threads, plus avoid several context switches per I/O. The defined now safety requirements are: - caller should not hold any locks and should be reenterable; - callee should not depend on GEOM dual-threaded concurency semantics; - on the way down, if request is unmapped while callee doesn't support it, the context should be sleepable; - kernel thread stack usage should be below 50%. To keep compatibility with GEOM classes not meeting above requirements new provider and consumer flags added: - G_CF_DIRECT_SEND -- consumer code meets caller requirements (request); - G_CF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- consumer code meets callee requirements (done); - G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- provider code meets caller requirements (done); - G_PF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- provider code meets callee requirements (request). Capable GEOM class can set them, allowing direct dispatch in cases where it is safe. If any of requirements are not met, request is queued to g_up or g_down thread same as before. Such GEOM classes were reviewed and updated to support direct dispatch: CONCAT, DEV, DISK, GATE, MD, MIRROR, MULTIPATH, NOP, PART, RAID, STRIPE, VFS, ZERO, ZFS::VDEV, ZFS::ZVOL, all classes based on g_slice KPI (LABEL, MAP, FLASHMAP, etc). To declare direct completion capability disk(9) KPI got new flag equivalent to G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- DISKFLAG_DIRECT_COMPLETION. da(4) and ada(4) disk drivers got it set now thanks to earlier CAM locking work. This change more then twice increases peak block storage performance on systems with manu CPUs, together with earlier CAM locking changes reaching more then 1 million IOPS (512 byte raw reads from 16 SATA SSDs on 4 HBAs to 256 user-level threads).
