我正在尝试使用Linux libaio来优化服务器应用程序中的IO性能.我相信我已经完成了所有必要的工作(使用O_DIRECT,将缓冲区与内存页面对齐…).我期待立即调用io_submit返回,但是一个简单的测试显示它实际需要大约80微秒才能在我的核心i7笔记本电脑上返回.我期待太多或我的测试程序有什么问题吗？ (用g编译–cd = c 0x -laio)

#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <libaio.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cstdio>
#include <iostream>
#include <chrono>

// Open the file for write, return the file descriptor
int open_write(char const* file)
{
  int fd = open(file, O_DIRECT|O_CREAT|O_WRONLY, S_IRWXU|S_IRWXG|S_IROTH);
  if (fd < 0) {
    perror("open_write");
    exit(1);
  }
}

// Make a buffer of _size_ byte, fill with 'a', return the buffer, it should be aligned to memory page
void* make_write_buffer(size_t size)
{
  void* buf = 0;
  int ret = posix_memalign((void**)&buf, sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE), size);
  if (ret < 0 || buf == 0) {
    perror("make_write_buffer");
    exit(1);
  }
  memset(buf, 'a', size);
  return buf;
}

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{    
  static const size_t SIZE = 16 * 1024;

  // Prepare file and buffer to write
  int write_fd = open_write("test.dat");
  void* buf = make_write_buffer(SIZE);

  // Prepare aio
  io_context_t ctx;
  memset(&ctx, 0, sizeof(ctx));
  const int maxEvents = 32;
  io_setup(maxEvents, &ctx);

  iocb *iocbpp = new iocb;
  io_prep_pwrite(iocbpp, write_fd, buf, SIZE, 0);

  using namespace std::chrono;
  // Submit aio task
  auto start = monotonic_clock::now();
  int status = io_submit(ctx, 1, &iocbpp);
  if (status < 0) {
    errno = -status;
    perror("io_submit");
    exit(1);
  }
  auto dur = duration_cast<microseconds>(monotonic_clock::now() - start);
  std::cout << "io_submit takes: " << dur.count() << " microseconds." << std::endl;

  io_event events[10];
  int n = io_getevents(ctx, 1, 10, events, NULL);

  close(write_fd);
  io_destroy(ctx);
  delete iocbpp;
  free(buf);
  return 0;
}

解决方法:

简而言之：io_submit阻止,除了修复内核之外,你无能为力.

here是kernel-aio的一个主题.

正如该线程所指出的,您可以尝试增加/ sys / block / xxx / queue / nr_requests
