Subject: [PATCH v3 08/12] NFSv4/flexfiles: give each direction its own lock and cacheline
Date: Fri,  6 Nov 2026 13:20:56 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106182105.78611-9-snitzer@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261106182105.78611-1-snitzer@kernel.org>

From: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@hammerspace.com>

A read uses only read_stat and a write only write_stat, but both take
the same stripe lock, and an I/O dirties two cachelines.

Move the lock into struct nfs4_ff_layoutstat, with the in-flight count,
and replace nfs4_ff_busy_timer with a ktime_t.  The structure is then
exactly 64 bytes:

        spinlock_t             lock              4
        int                    ops_in_flight     4
        struct nfs4_ff_io_stat io_stat          48
        ktime_t                busy_start_time   8

Align it to a cacheline.  An I/O now dirties one line, and a read and a
write to one stripe share neither a lock nor a line.  The stripe
shrinks from 384 to 320 bytes, still a multiple of 64 and of 128.

The reporting paths take the two locks in turn.  The statistics are
advisory and were never sampled atomically with in-flight I/O.

With CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK or CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, spinlock_t is larger
and the structure takes two lines.  This affects only the packing.
