While sending the blocking directIO in fuse, the write request is broken into sub-requests, each of default size 128k and all the requests are sent in non-blocking background mode if async_dio mode is supported by libfuse. The process which issue the write wait for the completion of all the sub-requests. Sending multiple requests parallely gives a chance to perform parallel writes in the user space fuse implementation if it is multi-threaded and hence improves the performance. When there is a size extending aio dio write, we switch to blocking mode so that we can properly update the size of the file after completion of the writes. However, in this situation all the sub-requests are sent in serialized manner where the next request is sent only after receiving the reply of the current request. Hence the multi-threaded user space implementation is not utilized properly. This patch changes the size extending aio dio behavior to exactly follow blocking dio. For multi threaded fuse implementation having 10 threads and using buffer size of 64MB to perform async directIO, we are getting double the speed.
