Subject: [PATCH 0/3] fs: peel back the inode_lock some more
Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2010 22:42:38 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1288266161-28897-1-git-send-email-david@fromorbit.com> (raw)
Hi Al,
These as the first versions of the patches that remove the inode
lock from the writeback lists, superblock inode lists and the inode
hash table. I haven't polished them at all, but they appear to work
ok so I thought I'd send them out for comments before I went to bed...
With these patches the inode_lock pretty much disappears from my
lock_stat profiles, with the writeback list lock being the most
contended of the replacements on an 8-way machine.
Cheers,
Dave.
