ext4: each filesystem creates and uses its own mb_cache

2014-03-18T23:24:49Z

This patch adds new interfaces to create and destory cache, ext4_xattr_create_cache() and ext4_xattr_destroy_cache(), and remove the cache creation and destory calls from ex4_init_xattr() and ext4_exitxattr() in fs/ext4/xattr.c. fs/ext4/super.c has been changed so that when a filesystem is mounted a cache is allocated and attched to its ext4_sb_info structure. fs/mbcache.c has been changed so that only one slab allocator is allocated and used by all mbcache structures.

fs/mbcache.c: doucple the locking of local from global data

2014-03-18T23:23:20Z

The patch increases the parallelism of mbcache by using the built-in lock in the hlist_bl_node to protect the mb_cache's local block and index hash chains. The global data mb_cache_lru_list and mb_cache_list continue to be protected by the global mb_cache_spinlock. New block group spinlock, mb_cache_bg_lock is also added to serialize accesses to mb_cache_entry's local data. A new member e_refcnt is added to the mb_cache_entry structure to help preventing an mb_cache_entry from being deallocated by a free while it is being referenced by either mb_cache_entry_get() or mb_cache_entry_find().

fs/mbcache.c: change block and index hash chain to hlist_bl_node

2014-03-18T23:19:41Z

This patch changes each mb_cache's both block and index hash chains to use a hlist_bl_node, which contains a built-in lock. This is the first step in decoupling of locks serializing accesses to mb_cache global data and each mb_cache_entry local data. Signed-off-by: T. Makphaibulchoke Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o"

fs: convert fs shrinkers to new scan/count API

2013-09-10T22:56:31Z

Convert the filesystem shrinkers to use the new API, and standardise some of the behaviours of the shrinkers at the same time. For example, nr_to_scan means the number of objects to scan, not the number of objects to free. I refactored the CIFS idmap shrinker a little - it really needs to be broken up into a shrinker per tree and keep an item count with the tree root so that we don't need to walk the tree every time the shrinker needs to count the number of objects in the tree (i.e. all the time under memory pressure).

super: fix calculation of shrinkable objects for small numbers

2013-09-10T22:56:29Z

The sysctl knob sysctl_vfs_cache_pressure is used to determine which percentage of the shrinkable objects in our cache we should actively try to shrink. It works great in situations in which we have many objects (at least more than 100), because the aproximation errors will be negligible. But if this is not the case, specially when total_objects < 100, we may end up concluding that we have no objects at all (total / 100 = 0, if total < 100). This is certainly not the biggest killer in the world, but may matter in very low kernel memory situations.

ext2: Resolve 'dereferencing pointer to incomplete type' when enabling EXT2_XATTR_DEBUG

mbcache: Limit the maximum number of cache entries

2010-08-18T10:24:41Z

Limit the maximum number of mb_cache entries depending on the number of hash buckets: if the only limit to the number of cache entries is the available memory the hash chains can grow very long, taking a long time to search.
