glusterd-volgen.c: remove BD xlator from the graph

2019-06-18T12:09:09+00:00

The BD xlator was removed some time ago. Remove it from the graph.
We can also remove the caps settings - only the BD xlator
was using it.

Lastly, remove the caps (which only BD was using) and the document
describing the translator.

mount/fuse: expose auto-invalidation as a mount option

2019-02-02T03:07:35+00:00

Auto invalidation is necessary when same (meta)data is shared/access
across multiple mounts. However, if (meta)data is not shared, all
relevant I/O goes through the cache of single mount and hence is
coherent with (meta)data on bricks always. So, fuse-auto-invalidation
can be disabled for this case which gives a huge performance boost for
workloads that write data and then immediately read the data they just
wrote.

From glusterfs --help,


      --auto-invalidation[=BOOL]   controls whether fuse-kernel can
                             auto-invalidate attribute, dentry and page-cache.
                             Disable this only if same files/directories are
                             not accessed across two different mounts
                             concurrently [default: "on"]


Details on how disabling auto-invalidation helped to reduce pgbench
init times can be found at [1]. Time taken for pgbench init of scale
8000 was 8340s. That will be an improvement of 86% (59280s vs 8340s)
with auto-invalidations turned off along with other
optimizations. Just disabling auto-invalidation contributed 56%
improvement by reducing the total time taken by 33260s.

-L is the short option of --log-level, not --localtime-logging,
and also, --localtime-logging does not contain an argument.

Revert "iobuf: Get rid of pre allocated iobuf_pool and use per thread mem pool"

2019-01-08T11:16:03+00:00

This reverts commit b87c397091bac6a4a6dec4e45a7671fad4a11770.

There seems to be some performance regression with the patch and hence recommended to have it reverted.
