When dm-writecache is used with SSD as a cache device, it would submit a
separate bio for each written block. The I/Os would be merged by the disk
scheduler, but this merging degrades performance.
Improve dm-writecache performance by submitting larger bios - this is
possible as long as there is consecutive free space on the cache
device.
Benchmark (arm64 with 64k page size, using /dev/ram0 as a cache device):
fio --bs=512k --iodepth=32 --size=400M --direct=1 \
--filename=/dev/mapper/cache --rw=randwrite --numjobs=1 --name=test
block old new
size MiB/s MiB/s

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
