From: Li Zhe <lizhe.67@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> This patchset is an consolidation of the two previous patchsets[1][2]. When vfio_pin_pages_remote() is called with a range of addresses that includes large folios, the function currently performs individual statistics counting operations for each page. This can lead to significant performance overheads, especially when dealing with large ranges of pages. The function vfio_unpin_pages_remote() has a similar issue, where executing put_pfn() for each pfn brings considerable consumption. This patchset optimizes the performance of the relevant functions by batching the less efficient operations mentioned before. The first patch optimizes the performance of the function vfio_pin_pages_remote(), while the remaining patches optimize the performance of the function vfio_unpin_pages_remote(). The performance test results, based on v6.16-rc4, for completing the 16G VFIO MAP/UNMAP DMA, obtained through unit test[3] with slight modifications[4], are as follows. Base(6.16-rc4): ./vfio-pci-mem-dma-map 0000:03:00.0 16 ------- AVERAGE (MADV_HUGEPAGE) -------- VFIO MAP DMA in 0.047 s (340.2 GB/s) VFIO UNMAP DMA in 0.135 s (118.6 GB/s) ------- AVERAGE (MAP_POPULATE) -------- VFIO MAP DMA in 0.280 s (57.2 GB/s) VFIO UNMAP DMA in 0.312 s (51.3 GB/s) ------- AVERAGE (HUGETLBFS) -------- VFIO MAP DMA in 0.052 s (310.5 GB/s) VFIO UNMAP DMA in 0.136 s (117.3 GB/s) With this patchset: ------- AVERAGE (MADV_HUGEPAGE) -------- VFIO MAP DMA in 0.027 s (596.4 GB/s) VFIO UNMAP DMA in 0.045 s (357.6 GB/s) ------- AVERAGE (MAP_POPULATE) -------- VFIO MAP DMA in 0.288 s (55.5 GB/s) VFIO UNMAP DMA in 0.288 s (55.6 GB/s) ------- AVERAGE (HUGETLBFS) -------- VFIO MAP DMA in 0.031 s (508.3 GB/s) VFIO UNMAP DMA in 0.045 s (352.9 GB/s) For large folio, we achieve an over 40% performance improvement for VFIO MAP DMA and an over 66% performance improvement for VFIO DMA UNMAP. For small folios, the performance test results show little difference compared with the performance before optimization.
