Motivation and Context

__zio_execute() calls zio_taskq_member() to determine if we are running
in a zio interrupt taskq, in which case we may need to switch to
processing this zio in a zio issue taskq. The call to
zio_taskq_member() can become a performance bottleneck when we are
processing a high rate of zio's.

zio_taskq_member() calls taskq_member() on each of the zio interrupt
taskqs, of which there are 21. This is slow because each call to
taskq_member() does tsd_get(taskq_tsd), which on Linux is relatively
slow.

Description

This commit improves the performance of zio_taskq_member() by having it
cache the value of tsd_get(taskq_tsd), reducing the number of those
calls to 1/21th of the current behavior.

How Has This Been Tested?

In a test case running zfs send -c >/dev/null of a filesystem with
small blocks (average 2.5KB/block), zio_taskq_member() was using 6.7% of
one CPU, and with this change it is reduced to 1.3%. Overall time to
perform the zfs send reduced by 10% (~150,000 block/sec to ~165,000
blocks/sec).

Note that these performance tests were performed on top of #10067, but it doesn't depend on that. The changes can be applied in either order.

Types of changes

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Performance enhancement (non-breaking change which improves efficiency)
  • Code cleanup (non-breaking change which makes code smaller or more readable)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)
  • Documentation (a change to man pages or other documentation)

Checklist:

  • My code follows the ZFS on Linux code style requirements.
  • I have updated the documentation accordingly.
  • I have read the contributing document.
  • I have added tests to cover my changes.
  • I have run the ZFS Test Suite with this change applied.
  • All commit messages are properly formatted and contain Signed-off-by.

In a test case running `zfs send -c >/dev/null` of a filesystem with
small blocks (average 2.5KB/block), zio_taskq_member() was using 6.7% of
one CPU, and with this change it is reduced to 1.3%.  Overall time to
perform the `zfs send` reduced by 10% (~150,000 block/sec to ~165,000
