[PATCH RFC 10/10] fs: Use unregister_shrinker_delayed_{initiate, finalize} for super_block shrinker

Kirill Tkhai
2018-08-07T15:39:44Z

Previous patches made all the data, which is touched from
super_cache_count(), destroyed from destroy_super_work():
s_dentry_lru, s_inode_lru and super_block::s_fs_info.

super_cache_scan() can't be called after SB_ACTIVE is cleared
in generic_shutdown_super().

So, it safe to move heavy unregister_shrinker_delayed_finalize()
part to delayed work, i.e. it's safe for parallel do_shrink_slab()
to be executed between unregister_shrinker_delayed_initiate() and
destroy_super_work()->unregister_shrinker_delayed_finalize().

This makes the heavy synchronize_srcu() to do not affect on user-visible
unregistration speed (since now it's executed from workqueue).

All further time-critical for unregistration places may be written
in the same conception.
