Subject: [PATCH v3 04/19] VFS: use wait_var_event for waiting in d_alloc_parallel()
Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2026 14:01:22 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260427040517.828226-5-neilb@ownmail.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260427040517.828226-1-neilb@ownmail.net>
From: NeilBrown <neil@brown.name>
d_alloc_parallel() currently requires a wait_queue_head to be passed in.
This must have a life time which extends until the lookup is completed.
This makes it awkward to use and particularly make it hard to use in
lookup_one_qstr_excl() which I hope to do in the future.
This patch changes d_alloc_parallel() to use wake_up_var_locked() to
wake up waiters, and wait_var_event_spinlock() to wait. dentry->d_lock
is used for synchronisation as it is already held and the relevant
times.
In most cases there will be no waiters so the wake_up_var_locked()
call is a complete waste. To optimise this a new ->d_flags flag is
added: DCACHE_LOCK_WAITERS. This is set whenever any thread prepares to
wait for the dentry, and if it isn't set when DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP is
cleared, no wakeup is sent.
(The name is deliberately generic as I plan to replace DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP
with more generic per-dentry locking in the future).
__d_lookup_unhash() now returns a bool rather than a wq. This is true
if DCACHE_LOCK_WAITERS was sent and is used to decide to send the wake
up. It would be easier to send the wakeup immediately when clearing
DCACHE_LOCK_WAITERS, but then the waiter could wake a bit earlier and
then spend time spinning on ->d_lock. I don't know if that cost is
interesting.
__d_lookup_unhash() no longer needs to re-init ->d_lru. That was
previously shared (in a union) with ->d_wait but ->d_wait is now gone
so it no longer corrupts ->d_lru.
