Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Don't invalidate directory mapping until attributes expire
Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2016 13:27:09 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <67cfa1f7f028229bfd4b1ac2619bc85b9e34ef7f.1472059583.git.bcodding@redhat.com> (raw)

Commit 311324ad1713666a6e803aecf0d4e1a136a5b34a ("NFS: Be more aggressive
in using readdirplus for 'ls -l' situations") removed the optimization
added by commit 07b5ce8ef2d87f1914054804720d6facbaa3f4ce ("NFS: Make nfs_readdir
revalidate less often") to bypass the revalidation of the directory mapping
on subsequent calls into nfs_readdir().  Add that optimization back here.

A directory modified once every second and containing 40k entries takes my
system around 80 seconds to list.  With this patch, that time is reduced to
7 seconds.
