The check for nfs_attribute_timeout(dir) in nfs_check_verifier is redundant: nfs_lookup_revalidate() will already call nfs_revalidate_inode() on the parent dir when necessary. The only case where this is not done is the case of a negative dentry. Fix this case by moving up the revalidation code. Signed-off-by: NTrond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

dentry verifiers are always set to the parent directory's cache_change_attribute. There is no reason to be testing for anything other than equality when we're trying to find out if the dentry has been checked since the last time the directory was modified.

md currently uses ->media_changed to make sure rescan_partitions is call on md array after they are assembled. However that doesn't happen until the array is opened, which is later than some people would like. So use blkdev_ioctl to do the rescan immediately that the array has been assembled.

When it is set, the number of drives, layout and chunksize can have two possible values, an old an a new.

__used is defined to be __attribute__((unused)) for all pre-3.3 gcc compilers to suppress warnings for unused functions because perhaps they are referenced only in inline assembly. It is defined to be __attribute__((used)) for gcc 3.3 and later so that the code is still emitted for such functions. __maybe_unused is defined to be __attribute__((unused)) for both function and variable use if it could possibly be unreferenced due to the evaluation of preprocessor macros. Function prototypes shall be marked with __maybe_unused if the actual definition of the function is dependant on preprocessor macros. No update to compiler-intel.h is necessary because ICC supports both __attribute__((used)) and __attribute__((unused)) as specified by the gcc manual. __attribute_used__ is deprecated and will be removed once all current code is converted to using __used.

由 Christoph Lameter 提交于
Currently the slab allocators contain callbacks into the page allocator to perform the draining of pagesets on remote nodes. This requires SLUB to have a whole subsystem in order to be compatible with SLAB. Moving node draining out of the slab allocators avoids a section of code in SLUB. Move the node draining so that is is done when the vm statistics are updated. At that point we are already touching all the cachelines with the pagesets of a processor. Add a expire counter there. If we have to update per zone or global vm statistics then assume that the pageset will require subsequent draining. The expire counter will be decremented on each vm stats update pass until it reaches zero. Then we will drain one batch from the pageset. The draining will cause vm counter updates which will then cause another expiration until the pcp is empty. So we will drain a batch every 3 seconds. Note that remote node draining is a somewhat esoteric feature that is required on large NUMA systems because otherwise significant portions of system memory can become trapped in pcp queues. The number of pcp is determined by the number of processors and nodes in a system. A system with 4 processors and 2 nodes has 8 pcps which is okay. But a system with 1024 processors and 512 nodes has 512k pcps with a high potential for large amount of memory being caught in them.

vmstat is currently using the cache reaper to periodically bring the statistics up to date. The cache reaper does only exists in SLUB as a way to provide compatibility with SLAB. This patch removes the vmstat calls from the slab allocators and provides its own handling. The advantage is also that we can use a different frequency for the updates. Refreshing vm stats is a pretty fast job so we can run this every second and stagger this by only one tick. This will lead to some overlap in large systems. F.e a system running at 250 HZ with 1024 processors will have 4 vm updates occurring at once. However, the vm stats update only accesses per node information. It is only necessary to stagger the vm statistics updates per processor in each node. Vm counter updates occurring on distant nodes will not cause cacheline contention. We could implement an alternate approach that runs the first processor on each node at the second and then each of the other processor on a node on a subsequent tick. That may be useful to keep a large amount of the second free of timer activity. Maybe the timer folks will have some feedback on this one?
