btrfs: remove unnecessary EXTENT_UPTODATE state in buffered I/O path
After we copied data to page cache in buffered I/O, we 1. Insert a EXTENT_UPTODATE state into inode's io_tree, by endio_readpage_release_extent(), set_extent_delalloc() or set_extent_defrag(). 2. Set page uptodate before we unlock the page. But the only place we check io_tree's EXTENT_UPTODATE state is in btrfs_do_readpage(). We know we enter btrfs_do_readpage() only when we have a non-uptodate page, so it is unnecessary to set EXTENT_UPTODATE. For example, when performing a buffered random read: fio --rw=randread --ioengine=libaio --direct=0 --numjobs=4 \ --filesize=32G --size=4G --bs=4k --name=job \ --filename=/mnt/file --name=job Then check how many extent_state in io_tree: cat /proc/slabinfo | grep btrfs_extent_state | awk '{print $2}' w/o this patch, we got 640567 btrfs_extent_state. w/ this patch, we got 204 btrfs_extent_state. Maintaining such a big tree brings overhead since every I/O needs to insert EXTENT_LOCKED, insert EXTENT_UPTODATE, then remove EXTENT_LOCKED. And in every insert or remove, we need to lock io_tree, do tree search, alloc or dealloc extent states. By removing unnecessary EXTENT_UPTODATE, we keep io_tree in a minimal size and reduce overhead when performing buffered I/O.
