ff812c55634f767fb0f7f58b942af1a1c44e95cf qcow2: handle_dependencies(): relax conflict detection
There is no conflict and no dependency if we have parallel writes to
different subclusters of one cluster when the cluster itself is already
allocated. So, relax extra dependency.
Measure performance:
First, prepare build/qemu-img-old and build/qemu-img-new images.
cd scripts/simplebench
./img_bench_templater.py
Paste the following to stdin of running script:
qemu_img=../../build/qemu-img-{old|new}
$qemu_img create -f qcow2 -o extended_l2=on /ssd/x.qcow2 1G
$qemu_img bench -c 100000 -d 8 [-s 2K|-s 2K -o 512|-s $((1024*2+512))] \
-w -t none -n /ssd/x.qcow2
The result:
All results are in seconds
------------------ --------- ---------
old new
-s 2K 6.7 ± 15% 6.2 ± 12%
-7%
-s 2K -o 512 13 ± 3% 11 ± 5%
-16%
-s $((1024*2+512)) 9.5 ± 4% 8.4
-12%
------------------ --------- ---------
So small writes are more independent now and that helps to keep deeper
io queue which improves performance.
271 iotest output becomes racy for three allocation in one cluster.
Second and third writes may finish in different order. Second and
third requests don't depend on each other any more. Still they both
depend on first request anyway. Filter out second and third write
offsets to cover both possible outputs.
