Subject: [PATCH net-next v5 11/12] net/rds: drop rds_conn_count in favor of t_conn_count
Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2026 23:11:48 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260919061149.250658-12-achender@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260919061149.250658-1-achender@kernel.org>
The previous patch gave each transport its own connection count in
t_conn_count, incremented and decremented at exactly the points where
the global rds_conn_count is. That leaves rds_conn_count with a
single remaining consumer: the seed of the per-path workqueue names
in __rds_conn_create().
Switch the name seed to t_conn_count, as UEK does, and remove
rds_conn_count. The numbering becomes per-transport instead of
global, so connections of different transports can now receive the
same seed; workqueue names carry no uniqueness requirement, and the
seed was already reused as the count rose and fell. Removing the
counter also removes the rds_conn_lock round-trip that
rds_conn_destroy_fini() took solely to decrement it. (The free path
still sleeps in destroy_workqueue(), so the last reference has to be
dropped from process context as before; only that one lock goes.)
Based on the Oracle UEK commit "net/rds: Each RDS transport
should keep its own connection count".
