    quota: Reduce contention on dq_data_lock · 7b9ca4c6
    Jan Kara 提交于
    dq_data_lock is currently used to protect all modifications of quota
    accounting information, consistency of quota accounting on the inode,
    and dquot pointers from inode. As a result contention on the lock can be
    pretty heavy.
    
    Reduce the contention on the lock by protecting quota accounting
    information by a new dquot->dq_dqb_lock and consistency of quota
    accounting with inode usage by inode->i_lock.
    
    This change reduces time to create 500000 files on ext4 on ramdisk by 50
    different processes in separate directories by 6% when user quota is
    turned on. When those 50 processes belong to 50 different users, the
    improvement is about 9%.
