Subject: [Devel] [PATCH VZ10 5/6] drivers/md/dm-qcow2: scan lower delta in one pass over empty L1 entry
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2026 15:29:59 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260810123000.19834-6-andrey.zhadchenko@virtuozzo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260810123000.19834-1-andrey.zhadchenko@virtuozzo.com>
When an L1 entry is absent and there is a backing image, the seek
code descends into the lower delta one cluster at a time.
Change advance_and_spawn_lower_seek_qio() to take limit instead of
a size. Pass bigger range if L1 entry is empty.
On a 16G image (128K clusters, extended L2) with no L1 entries over a
backing image with data at 15G, warm-cache SEEK_DATA improves from
40.2 ms to 0.01 ms.
