Following are 11 patches from Greg Banks which combine to make knfsd more Numa-aware. They reduce hitting on 'global' data structures, and create some data-structures that can be node-local. knfsd threads are bound to a particular node, and the thread to handle a new request is chosen from the threads that are attach to the node that received the interrupt. The distribution of threads across nodes can be controlled by a new file in the 'nfsd' filesystem, though the default approach of an even spread is probably fine for most sites. Some (old) numbers that show the efficacy of these patches: N == number of NICs == number of CPUs == nmber of clients. Number of NUMA nodes == N/2 N Throughput, MiB/s CPU usage, % (max=N*100) Before After Before After --- ------ ---- ----- ----- 4 312 435 350 228 6 500 656 501 418 8 562 804 690 589 This patch: Move the aging of RPC/TCP connection sockets from the main svc_recv() loop to a timer which uses a mark-and-sweep algorithm every 6 minutes. This reduces the amount of work that needs to be done in the main RPC loop and the length of time we need to hold the (effectively global) svc_serv->sv_lock.
