      hpfs: remove the BKL · 9a311b96
      由 Arnd Bergmann 提交于 
      This removes the BKL in hpfs in a rather awful
way, by making the code only work on uniprocessor
systems without kernel preemption, as suggested
by Andi Kleen.

The HPFS code probably has close to zero remaining
users on current kernels, all archeological uses of
the file system can probably be done with the significant
restrictions.

The hpfs_lock/hpfs_unlock functions are left in the
code, sincen Mikulas has indicated that he is still
interested in fixing it in a better way.

      fs: dcache reduce branches in lookup path · fb045adb
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      Reduce some branches and memory accesses in dcache lookup by adding dentry
flags to indicate common d_ops are set, rather than having to check them.
This saves a pointer memory access (dentry->d_op) in common path lookup
situations, and saves another pointer load and branch in cases where we
have d_op but not the particular operation.

Patched with:

git grep -E '[.>]([[:space:]])*d_op([[:space:]])*=' | xargs sed -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)->d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\1, \2);/' -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)\.d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\&\1, \2);/' -i

      fs: icache RCU free inodes · fa0d7e3d
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:

- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
  permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
  to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
  the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
  page lock to follow page->mapping.

The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.

In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.

The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.

      fs: change d_hash for rcu-walk · b1e6a015
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      Change d_hash so it may be called from lock-free RCU lookups. See similar
patch for d_compare for details.

For in-tree filesystems, this is just a mechanical change.

      fs: change d_compare for rcu-walk · 621e155a
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      Change d_compare so it may be called from lock-free RCU lookups. This
does put significant restrictions on what may be done from the callback,
however there don't seem to have been any problems with in-tree fses.
If some strange use case pops up that _really_ cannot cope with the
rcu-walk rules, we can just add new rcu-unaware callbacks, which would
cause name lookup to drop out of rcu-walk mode.

For in-tree filesystems, this is just a mechanical change.
