From 8311c29d40235062a843f4a8e8a70a44af6fe4c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2008 14:29:30 -0800 Subject: md: reduce CPU wastage on idle md array with a write-intent bitmap On an md array with a write-intent bitmap, a thread wakes up every few seconds and scans the bitmap looking for work to do. If the array is idle, there will be no work to do, but a lot of scanning is done to discover this. So cache the fact that the bitmap is completely clean, and avoid scanning the whole bitmap when the cache is known to be clean.
