scsi: hisi_sas: Default enable interrupt coalescing
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In the current interrupt reporting mode, each CQ entry reports an
interrupt. However, when there are a large number of I/O hardware
completion interrupts, the following issue may occur:

[ 4682.868084][  C129] Disabling IRQ torvalds#134

When the IRQ management layer processes each hardware interrupt, if the
return value of the interrupt handler is IRQ_WAKE_THREAD, it will wake
up the handler thread for this interrupt action and set IRQTF_RUNTHREAD
flag, wait for the interrupt handling thread to clear the
IRQTF_RUNTHREAD flag after execution. Later in note_interrupt(), use
irq_count to count hardware interrupts and irqs_unhandled to count
interrupts for which no thread handler is responsible. When irq_count
reaches 100000 and irqs_unhandled reaches 99000, irq will be disabled.

In the performance test scenario, I/O completion hardware interrupts are
continuously and quickly generated. As a result, the interrupt
processing thread is cyclically called in irq_thread() and does not
exit, this affects the response of the interrupt thread to the hardware
interrupt and causes irqs_unhandled to grow to 99000. Finally, the irq
is disabled.

Therefore, default enable interrupt coalescing to reduce the generation
of hardware interrupts, this helps interrupt processing threads to stop
calling in irq_thread().

For interrupt coalescing, according to the actual performance test, set
the count of CQ entries to 10 and the interrupt coalescing timeout
period to 10us based on the actual performance test.

Before and after interrupt coalescing is enabled, the 4K read/write
performance is improved by about 3%, and the 256K read/write performance
is basically the same.
