| |
When dio writes perform concurrently, our performace will be low because of Thread A's allocation of multi continuous blocks will be break by Thread B, there are two cases as below: - In Thread B, we may change current segment to a new segment for LFS allocation if we dio write in the beginning of the file. - In Thread B, we may allocate blocks in the middle of Thread A's allocation, which make blocks which allocated in Thread A being discontinuous.
This patch adds writepages mutex lock to make block allocation in dio write atomic to avoid above issues.
Test environment: ubuntu os with linux kernel 4.2+, intel i7-3770, 16g memory, 32g kingston sd card.
