[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 0/24 RFC] fs: Convert all embedded bdis into separate ones

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 0/24 RFC] fs: Convert all embedded bdis into separate ones

[Jan Kara]

Hello,

this patch series converts all embedded occurences of struct backing_dev_info
to use standalone dynamically allocated structures. This makes bdi handling
unified across all bdi users and generally removes some boilerplate code from
filesystems setting up their own bdi. It also allows us to remove some code
from generic bdi implementation.

The patches were only compile-tested for most filesystems (I've tested
mounting only for NFS & btrfs) so fs maintainers please have a look whether
the changes look sound to you.

This series is based on top of bdi fixes that were merged into linux-block
git tree.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 04/24] fs: Provide infrastructure for dynamic BDIs in filesystems

[Jan Kara]

Provide helper functions for setting up dynamically allocated
backing_dev_info structures for filesystems and cleaning them up on
superblock destruction.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 18/24] gfs2: Convert to properly refcounting bdi

[Jan Kara]

Similarly to set_bdev_super() GFS2 just used block device reference to
bdi. Convert it to properly getting bdi reference. The reference will
get automatically dropped on superblock destruction.

Just one concern, will this cause problems for multiple superblock cases
like nfs with nosharecache?

Can you ellaborate a bit? I've looked for a while what nfs with
nosharecache does but I didn't see how it would influence anything with
bdis...

Oh, I missed that bdi_seq was static, then it should be fine.

(I was worried about that nfs with nosharecache would have multiple
superblocks and if each superblock has a bdi using the same bdi name,
nfs-xx.)

Thanks for the reply.

Thanks,
