Subject: [PATCH v3 04/12] NFSv4/flexfiles: make dss_info->start_time write-once
Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2026 13:20:52 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106182105.78611-5-snitzer@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261106182105.78611-1-snitzer@kernel.org>
From: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@hammerspace.com>
nfs4_ff_layoutstat_start_io() writes start_time under the stripe lock,
and ff_layout_encode_ff_layoutupdate() reads it without the lock.
ffl_duration is measured from the stripe's first I/O, so start_time is
written once and then only read. Make it an atomic64_t, publish it
with atomic64_try_cmpxchg() so that the first I/O sets it, and read it
with atomic64_read(). Later I/O sees the value is set and does not
write it. ffl->last_report_time is already published this way.
start_time then does not depend on the stripe lock, which a later patch
splits in two.
