From 96029c4e09ccbd73a6d0ed2b29e80bf2586ad7ef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "npiggin@suse.de" Date: Sun, 26 Apr 2009 20:25:55 +1000 Subject: fs: introduce mnt_clone_write This patch speeds up lmbench lat_mmap test by about another 2% after the first patch. Before: avg = 462.286 std = 5.46106 After: avg = 453.12 std = 9.58257 (50 runs of each, stddev gives a reasonable confidence) It does this by introducing mnt_clone_write, which avoids some heavyweight operations of mnt_want_write if called on a vfsmount which we know already has a write count; and mnt_want_write_file, which can call mnt_clone_write if the file is open for write. After these two patches, mnt_want_write and mnt_drop_write go from 7% on the profile down to 1.3% (including mnt_clone_write). [AV: mnt_want_write_file() should take file alone and derive mnt from it; not only all callers have that form, but that's the only mnt about which we know that it's already held for write if file is opened for write] Cc: Dave Hansen Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin Signed-off-by: Al Viro --- fs/file_table.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'fs/file_table.c') diff --git a/fs/file_table.c b/fs/file_table.c index 54018fe4884..3d66dbcebef 100644 --- a/fs/file_table.c +++ b/fs/file_table.c @@ -214,7 +214,7 @@ int init_file(struct file *file, struct vfsmount *mnt, struct dentry *dentry, */ if ((mode & FMODE_WRITE) && !special_file(dentry->d_inode->i_mode)) { file_take_write(file); - error = mnt_want_write(mnt); + error = mnt_clone_write(mnt); WARN_ON(error); } return error; -- cgit v1.2.3 From 864d7c4c068f23642efe91b33be3a84afe5f71e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "npiggin@suse.de" Date: Sun, 26 Apr 2009 20:25:56 +1000 Subject: fs: move mark_files_ro into file_table.c This function walks the s_files lock, and operates primarily on the files in a superblock, so it better belongs here (eg. see also fs_may_remount_ro).
