This commit improves the residency of btrees built in the metadata for dm-thin and dm-cache. When inserting a new entry into a full btree node the current code splits the node into two. This can result in very many half full nodes, particularly if the insertions are occurring in an ascending order (as happens in dm-thin with large writes). With this commit, when we insert into a full node we first try and move some entries to a neighbouring node that has space, failing that it tries to split two neighbouring nodes into three. Results are given below. 'Residency' is how full nodes are on average as a percentage. Average instruction counts for the operations are given to show the extra processing has little overhead. +--------------------------+--------------------------+ | Before | After | +------------+-----------+-----------+--------------+-----------+--------------+ | Test | Phase | Residency | Instructions | Residency | Instructions | +------------+-----------+-----------+--------------+-----------+--------------+ | Ascending | insert | 50 | 1876 | 96 | 1930 | | | overwrite | 50 | 1789 | 96 | 1746 | | | lookup | 50 | 778 | 96 | 778 | | Descending | insert | 50 | 3024 | 96 | 3181 | | | overwrite | 50 | 1789 | 96 | 1746 | | | lookup | 50 | 778 | 96 | 778 | | Random | insert | 68 | 3800 | 84 | 3736 | | | overwrite | 68 | 4254 | 84 | 3911 | | | lookup | 68 | 779 | 84 | 779 | | Runs | insert | 63 | 2546 | 82 | 2815 | | | overwrite | 63 | 2013 | 82 | 1986 | | | lookup | 63 | 778 | 82 | 779 | +------------+-----------+-----------+--------------+-----------+--------------+ Ascending - keys are inserted in ascending order. Descending - keys are inserted in descending order. Random - keys are inserted in random order. Runs - keys are split into ascending runs of ~20 length. Then the runs are shuffled.
