Subject: fs: inode freeing and hash lookup via RCU
Date: Mon, 1 Nov 2010 16:33:41 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1288589624-15251-1-git-send-email-david@fromorbit.com> (raw)
Hi Al,
The following three patches implement the extra functionality you
wanted on top of the inode lock breakup. The first patch lifts the
i_lock up out of writeback_single_inode(), the second implements RCU
freeing of inodes via SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, and the third converts
inode hash lookup operations to use RCU list walks. Comments are
welcome.
Cheers,
Dave.
