Single thread fio test (read, bs=4k, ioengine=libaio, iodepth=128, numjobs=1) over dm-thin device has poor performance versus bare nvme device. Further investigation with perf indicates that queue_work_on() consumes over 20% CPU time when doing IO over dm-thin device. The call stack is as follows. - 40.57% thin_map + 22.07% queue_work_on + 9.95% dm_thin_find_block + 2.80% cell_defer_no_holder 1.91% inc_all_io_entry.isra.33.part.34 + 1.78% bio_detain.isra.35 In cell_defer_no_holder(), wakeup_worker() is always called, no matter whether the tc->deferred_bio_list list is empty or not. In single thread IO model, this list is most likely empty. So skip waking up worker thread if tc->deferred_bio_list list is empty. Single thread IO performance improves from 448 MiB/s to 646 MiB/s (+44%) once the needless wake_worker() calls are properly skipped.

README
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.
