Subject[PATCH 3/3] dm-verity: Add try_verify_in_tasklet
From
Using tasklets for disk verification can reduce IO latency.  When there are
accelerated hash instructions it is often better to compute the hash immediately
using a tasklet rather than deferring verification to a work-queue. This
reduces time spent waiting to schedule work-queue jobs, but requires spending
slightly more time in interrupt context.

If the dm-bufio cache does not have the required hashes we fallback to
the work-queue implementation.

The following shows a speed comparison of random reads on a dm-verity device.
The dm-verity device uses a 1G ramdisk for data and a 1G ramdisk for hashes.
One test was run using tasklets and one test was run using the existing
work-queue solution. Both tests were run when the dm-bufio cache was hot. The
tasklet implementation performs significantly better since there is no time
waiting for work-queue jobs to be scheduled.

# /data/fio /data/tasklet.fio | grep READ
READ: bw=181MiB/s (190MB/s), 181MiB/s-181MiB/s (190MB/s-190MB/s), io=512MiB
(537MB), run=2827-2827msec
# /data/fio /data/workqueue.fio | grep READ
READ: bw=23.6MiB/s (24.8MB/s), 23.6MiB/s-23.6MiB/s (24.8MB/s-24.8MB/s),
io=512MiB (537MB), run=21688-21688msec
