Embodiment
With reference to the accompanying drawings described in 1, a kind of block rank performance of storage system testing tool, comprise I/O and record reader, I/O request controller, I/O transmitter, collection device and interpretation of result device, I/O records reader and is read out by the I/O record in trace file, and the content that every bar I/O records comprises: reel number, beginning byte, the total amount of byte of access, request start time; I/O request controller has three functions, the weight of control load, follows the tracks of the state of I/O record and the transmitting time of control I/O record; I/O transmitter is responsible for I/O request to submit to away in an asynchronous manner, and the system of giving goes process; Collection device, in broadcasting I/O recording process, is checked the state that I/O reads and writes, when I/O has read and write, is then collected in destination file by the result data of performance test.
1, I/O Request Control
1.1 load weights control
IOmark carrys out the weight of control load by screening reel number.The target device reel number markings that the every bar I/O read from trace file records, and the distribution of reel number is uneven.IOmark carries out by selecting the I/O record with certain or some reel numbers the weight playing control load.
1.2 record I/O solicited statuss
IOmark uses the status information of round-robin queue record I/O request.This queue does not observe first-in first-out rule, is used for storing some essential informations.Such as, after I/O request is launched, record launch time, after completing for I/O, add up I/O time delay.Before broadcasting I/O record is tested, IOmark is round-robin queue's predistribution memory headroom.In whole test process, round-robin queue's Reusability.After performance test completes, then by the release of the memory headroom of application.
IOmark uses and takies mark to represent whether entries in queues is just used.Before an I/O operation starts, the array item that circulation searching one is idle in round-robin queue, and this mark that takies is put 1.After certain I/O has operated, find corresponding array item from the data item of bio structure, and the mark that takies of this array item has been set to 0.
2, I/O request is launched
The control of 2.1 launch times
In theory, the transmitting time to system transmission I/O request should for the request time in I/O record.But when the I/O of section records enormous amount sometime in trace file, the speed sending I/O request can be greater than the speed of system process I/O request, request time is made to be not necessarily transmitting time just.When being greater than current time upon request, thread needs a period of time of sleeping, until current time rises to request time; On the contrary, when being less than current time upon request, then create delay, this I/O request is launched by IOmark at once.
The radiation pattern of 2.2I/O request
I/O records reader and reads load information, is controlled accordingly by I/O request controller.Finally be responsible for I/O to record to launch by I/O transmitter.Adopt the access mode of kernel state asynchronous I/O to process I/O request herein, after I/O request is submitted to, do not need to wait for that I/O read-write operation completes.Like this, I/O records reader, I/O request controller and I/O transmitter and constantly to circulate executions, ceaselessly submits to I/O to ask to system.After I/O request is launched, the bottom of linux kernel, by a series of system call, realizes the read-write operation to disk.
