    bcache: Refactor btree io · 57943511
    Kent Overstreet 提交于
    The most significant change is that btree reads are now done
    synchronously, instead of asynchronously and doing the post read stuff
    from a workqueue.
    
    This was originally done because we can't block on IO under
    generic_make_request(). But - we already have a mechanism to punt cache
    lookups to workqueue if needed, so if we just use that we don't have to
    deal with the complexity of doing things asynchronously.
    
    The main benefit is this makes the locking situation saner; we can hold
    our write lock on the btree node until we're finished reading it, and we
    don't need that btree_node_read_done() flag anymore.
    
    Also, for writes, btree_write() was broken out into btree_node_write()
    and btree_leaf_dirty() - the old code with the boolean argument was dumb
    and confusing.
    
    The prio_blocked mechanism was improved a bit too, now the only counter
    is in struct btree_write, we don't mess with transfering a count from
    struct btree anymore.
    
    This required changing garbage collection to block prios at the start
    and unblock when it finishes, which is cleaner than what it was doing
    anyways (the old code had mostly the same effect, but was doing it in a
    convoluted way)
    
    And the btree iter btree_node_read_done() uses was converted to a real
    mempool.
