Since raid1 had already used bucket based mechanism to reduce the conflict between write IO and resync IO, it is possible to speed up performance for io serialization with refer to the same mechanism. To align with the barrier bucket mechanism, we created arrays (with the same number of BARRIER_BUCKETS_NR) for spinlock, rb tree and waitqueue. Then we can reduce lock competition with multiple spinlocks, boost search performance with multiple rb trees and also reduce thundering herd problem with multiple waitqueues.

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.
