Currently, we send IOs to the main_td thread.
It is not needed, because all the read/write functions
provided by librbd are thread safe, so we can eliminate the
thread send messaging policy for read/write related functions.
And with this patch, users can observe the load balance
distribution of I/Os on each CPU core owned by spdk applications
through spdk_top tool.
In this patch, we did the following work:
1 Move rbd_open when create the bdev since we will create once.
2 Simplify the channel management.
3 Do not use thread send messaging to do the read/write I/Os.
According to our experiment results showed in
https://github.com/spdk/spdk/issues/2204
There will be more than 15% performance improvment in IOPS aspect
for different write I/O patterns, and it also addresses the I/O Load
balance issues.
Fixes issue: #2204
