      VFS : mount lock scalability for internal mounts · 423e0ab0
      Tim Chen 提交于
      For a number of file systems that don't have a mount point (e.g. sockfs
      and pipefs), they are not marked as long term. Therefore in
      mntput_no_expire, all locks in vfs_mount lock are taken instead of just
      local cpu's lock to aggregate reference counts when we release
      reference to file objects.  In fact, only local lock need to have been
      taken to update ref counts as these file systems are in no danger of
      going away until we are ready to unregister them.
      
      The attached patch marks file systems using kern_mount without
      mount point as long term.  The contentions of vfs_mount lock
      is now eliminated.  Before un-registering such file system,
      kern_unmount should be called to remove the long term flag and
      make the mount point ready to be freed.
