Subject: [PATCH v2 01/13] exfat: add cache option for __exfat_ent_get
Date: Thu, 8 Jan 2026 15:49:17 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108074929.356683-2-chizhiling@163.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260108074929.356683-1-chizhiling@163.com>
From: Chi Zhiling <chizhiling@kylinos.cn>
When multiple entries are obtained consecutively, these entries are mostly
stored adjacent to each other. this patch introduces a "last" parameter to
cache the last opened buffer head, and reuse it when possible, which
reduces the number of sb_bread() calls.
When the passed parameter "last" is NULL, it means cache option is
disabled, the behavior unchanged as it was.
