specialize io::copy to use copy_file_range, splice or sendfile Fixes #74426. Also covers #60689 but only as an optimization instead of an official API. The specialization only covers std-owned structs so it should avoid the problems with #71091 Currently linux-only but it should be generalizable to other unix systems that have sendfile/sosplice and similar. There is a bit of optimization potential around the syscall count. Right now it may end up doing more syscalls than the naive copy loop when doing short (<8KiB) copies between file descriptors. The test case executes the following: ``` [pid 103776] statx(3, "", AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT|AT_EMPTY_PATH, STATX_ALL, {stx_mask=STATX_ALL|STATX_MNT_ID, stx_attributes=0, stx_mode=S_IFREG|0644, stx_size=17, ...}) = 0 [pid 103776] write(4, "wxyz", 4) = 4 [pid 103776] write(4, "iklmn", 5) = 5 [pid 103776] copy_file_range(3, NULL, 4, NULL, 5, 0) = 5 ``` 0-1 `stat` calls to identify the source file type. 0 if the type can be inferred from the struct from which the FD was extracted 𝖬 `write` to drain the `BufReader`/`BufWriter` wrappers. only happen when buffers are present. 𝖬 ≾ number of wrappers present. If there is a write buffer it may absorb the read buffer contents first so only result in a single write. Vectored writes would also be an option but that would require more invasive changes to `BufWriter`. 𝖭 `copy_file_range`/`splice`/`sendfile` until file size, EOF or the byte limit from `Take` is reached. This should generally be *much* more efficient than the read-write loop and also have other benefits such as DMA offload or extent sharing. ## Benchmarks ``` OLD test io::tests::bench_file_to_file_copy ... bench: 21,002 ns/iter (+/- 750) = 6240 MB/s [ext4] test io::tests::bench_file_to_file_copy ... bench: 35,704 ns/iter (+/- 1,108) = 3671 MB/s [btrfs] test io::tests::bench_file_to_socket_copy ... bench: 57,002 ns/iter (+/- 4,205) = 2299 MB/s test io::tests::bench_socket_pipe_socket_copy ... bench: 142,640 ns/iter (+/- 77,851) = 918 MB/s NEW test io::tests::bench_file_to_file_copy ... bench: 14,745 ns/iter (+/- 519) = 8889 MB/s [ext4] test io::tests::bench_file_to_file_copy ... bench: 6,128 ns/iter (+/- 227) = 21389 MB/s [btrfs] test io::tests::bench_file_to_socket_copy ... bench: 13,767 ns/iter (+/- 3,767) = 9520 MB/s test io::tests::bench_socket_pipe_socket_copy ... bench: 26,471 ns/iter (+/- 6,412) = 4951 MB/s ``` |
