Method and apparatus for accessing solid state disk
This disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for accessing a solid state disk (SSD). The method is applied to a storage node, the storage node includes a network interface card and an SSD, and the network interface card includes a memory. The network interface card receives a data write request sent by a client, where the data write request includes to-be-written data. The network interface card writes the to-be-written data to the memory of the network interface card, and the SSD obtains the to-be-written data from the memory of the network interface card and writes the to-be-written data to the SSD.
1. A method for accessing a solid state disk (SSD) in a storage node, the storage node comprises a network interface card and the SSD, the network interface card comprises a memory, the SSD comprises an I/O queue, and the method comprises:
receiving, by the network interface card, a data write request sent by a client, wherein the data write request comprises to-be-written data and an SSD write command;
writing, by the network interface card, the to-be-written data to the memory of the network interface card;
writing, by the network interface card, the SSD write command into the I/O queue comprised in the SSD; and
obtaining, by the SSD, the to-be-written data directly from the memory of the network interface card, and storing the to-be-written data on the SSD.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the memory of the network interface card has an I/O queue, the I/O queue comprised in the SSD comprises an NVMe I/O queue, and the writing of the SSD write command into the I/O queue of the SSD by the network interface card comprises:
writing, by the network interface card, the SSD write command to the NVMe I/O queue based on queue information of the NVMe I/O queue, and notifying the SSD of the SSD write command to be processed in the NVMe I/O queue.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein after the writing the to-be-written data to the SSD, the method further comprises:
writing, by the SSD, a write response message to the I/O queue of the network interface card based on queue information of the I/O queue, and notifying the network interface card of the write response message in the I/O queue, wherein the write response message indicates whether the SSD write command is successfully completed; and
sending, by the network interface card, the write response message to the client.
4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the method further comprises:
receiving, by the network interface card, the queue information of the NVMe I/O queue, wherein the queue information of the NVMe I/O queue comprises a head address and a depth of the NVMe I/O queue; and
receiving, by the SSD, queue information of the I/O queue, wherein the queue information of the I/O queue comprises a head address and a depth of the I/O queue.
5. A storage node, wherein the storage node comprises a network interface card and a solid state disk (SSD), and the network interface card comprises a memory, the SSD comprises an I/O queue, wherein
the network interface card is configured to receive a data write request sent by a client, wherein the data write request comprises to-be-written data and an SSD write command;
the network interface card is further configured to write the to-be-written data to the memory of the network interface card and write the SSD write command into the I/O queue comprised in the SSD; and
the SSD is configured to obtain the to-be-written data directly from the memory of the network interface card, and store the to-be-written data to the SSD.
6. The storage node according to claim 5 , wherein the memory of the network interface card has an I/O queue, the I/O queue comprised in the SSD comprises an NVMe I/O queue; and
the network interface card is further configured to write the SSD write command to the NVMe I/O queue based on queue information of the NVMe I/O queue, and notify the SSD of the SSD write command to be processed in the NVMe I/O queue.
7. The storage node according to claim 6 , wherein
the SSD is further configured to: after the to-be-written data is written to the SSD, write a write response message to the I/O queue of the network interface card based on queue information of the I/O queue, and notify the network interface card of the write response message in the I/O queue, wherein the write response message indicates whether the SSD write command is successfully completed; and
the network interface card is further configured to send the write response message to the client.
8. The storage node according to claim 6 , wherein
the network interface card is further configured to receive the queue information of the NVMe I/O queue, wherein the queue information of the NVMe I/O queue comprises a head address and a depth of the NVMe I/O queue; and
the SSD is further configured to receive queue information of the I/O queue, wherein the queue information of the I/O queue comprises a head address and a depth of the I/O queue.
