Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

struct dentry is one of the most critical structures in the kernel. So it's
sad to see it going neglected.

With CONFIG_PROFILING turned on (which is probably the common case at least
for distros and kernel developers), sizeof(struct dcache) == 208 here
(64-bit). This gives 19 objects per slab.

I packed d_mounted into a hole, and took another 4 bytes off the inline
name length to take the padding out from the end of the structure. This
shinks it to 200 bytes. I could have gone the other way and increased the
length to 40, but I'm aiming for a magic number, read on...

I then got rid of the d_cookie pointer. This shrinks it to 192 bytes. Rant:
why was this ever a good idea? The cookie system should increase its hash
size or use a tree or something if lookups are a problem. Also the "fast
dcookie lookups" in oprofile should be moved into the dcookie code -- how
can oprofile possibly care about the dcookie_mutex? It gets dropped after
get_dcookie() returns so it can't be providing any sort of protection.

At 192 bytes, 21 objects fit into a 4K page, saving about 3MB on my system
with ~140 000 entries allocated. 192 is also a multiple of 64, so we get
nice cacheline alignment on 64 and 32 byte line systems -- any given dentry
will now require 3 cachelines to touch all fields wheras previously it
would require 4.

I know the inline name size was chosen quite carefully, however with the
reduction in cacheline footprint, it should actually be just about as fast
to do a name lookup for a 36 character name as it was before the patch (and
faster for other sizes). The memory footprint savings for names which are
<= 32 or > 36 bytes long should more than make up for the memory cost for
33-36 byte names.

Performance is a feature...

Add d_obtain_alias as a new exported helper that drops the inode
reference in the failure case, too and allows to pass-through NULL
pointers and inodes to allow for tail-calls in the export operations.

Incidentally this helper already existed as a private function in

The VFS interface for the 'd_compare()' is a bit special (read: 'odd'),
because it really just essentially replaces a memcmp().  The filesystem
is supposed to just compare the two names with whatever case-independent
or other function.

And when I say 'is supposed to', I obviously mean that 'procfs does odd
things, and actually looks at the dentry that we don't even pass down,
rather than just the name'.  Which results in problems, because we
actually call d_compare before we have even verified that the dentry is
still hashed at all.

And that causes a problm since the inode that procfs looks at may have
been free'd and the d_inode pointer is NULL.  procfs just assumes that
all dentries are positive, since procfs itself never generates a
negative one.  But memory pressure will still result in the dentry
getting torn down, and as it is removed by RCU, it still remains visible
on some lists - and to d_compare.

If the filesystem just did a name comparison, we wouldn't care.  And we
could just fix procfs to know about negative dentries too.  But rather
than have the low-level filesystems know about internal VFS details,
just move the check for a unhashed dentry up a bit, so that we will only
call d_compare on dentries that are still active.

The actual oops this caused didn't look like a NULL pointer dereference
because procfs did a 'container_of(inode, struct proc_inode, vfs_inode)'
to get at its internal proc_inode information from the inode pointer,
and accessed a field below the inode. So the oops would look something
like

	BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffffffffffff0
	IP: [<ffffffff802bc6c6>] proc_sys_compare+0x36/0x50

and was seen on both x86-64 (Alexey Dobriyan and Hugh Dickins) and
ppc64 (Hugh Dickins).

[Summary]

 Split LRU-list of unused dentries to one per superblock to avoid soft
 lock up during NFS mounts and remounting of any filesystem.

 Previously I posted here:
 http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/5/590

[Descriptions]

- background

  dentry_unused is a list of dentries which are not referenced.
  dentry_unused grows up when references on directories or files are
  released.  This list can be very long if there is huge free memory.

- the problem

  When shrink_dcache_sb() is called, it scans all dentry_unused linearly
  under spin_lock(), and if dentry->d_sb is differnt from given
  superblock, scan next dentry.  This scan costs very much if there are
  many entries, and very ineffective if there are many superblocks.

  IOW, When we need to shrink unused dentries on one dentry, but scans
  unused dentries on all superblocks in the system.  For example, we scan
  500 dentries to unmount a filesystem, but scans 1,000,000 or more unused
  dentries on other superblocks.

  In our case , At mounting NFS*, shrink_dcache_sb() is called to shrink
  unused dentries on NFS, but scans 100,000,000 unused dentries on
  superblocks in the system such as local ext3 filesystems.  I hear NFS
  mounting took 1 min on some system in use.

* : NFS uses virtual filesystem in rpc layer, so NFS is affected by
  this problem.

  100,000,000 is possible number on large systems.

  Per-superblock LRU of unused dentried can reduce the cost in
  reasonable manner.

- How to fix

  I found this problem is solved by David Chinner's "Per-superblock
  unused dentry LRU lists V3"(1), so I rebase it and add some fix to
  reclaim with fairness, which is in Andrew Morton's comments(2).

  1) http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/25/318
  2) http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/25/320

  Split LRU-list of unused dentries to each superblocks.  Then, NFS
  mounting will check dentries under a superblock instead of all.  But
  this spliting will break LRU of dentry-unused.  So, I've attempted to
  make reclaim unused dentrins with fairness by calculate number of
  dentries to scan on this sb based on following way

  number of dentries to scan on this sb =
  count * (number of dentries on this sb / number of dentries in the machine)

- ToDo
 - I have to measuring performance number and do stress tests.

 - When unmount occurs during prune_dcache(), scanning on same
  superblock, It is unable to reach next superblock because it is gone
  away.  We restart scannig superblock from first one, it causes
  unfairness of reclaim unused dentries on first superblock.  But I think
  this happens very rarely.

- Test Results

  Result on 6GB boxes with excessive unused dentries.

The path that __d_path() computes can become slightly inconsistent when it
races with mount operations: it grabs the vfsmount_lock when traversing mount
points but immediately drops it again, only to re-grab it when it reaches the
next mount point.  The result is that the filename computed is not always
consisent, and the file may never have had that name. (This is unlikely, but
still possible.)

Fix this by grabbing the vfsmount_lock for the whole duration of
__d_path().
