Merge tag 'vfs-6.11.inode' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs inode / dentry updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains smaller performance improvements to inodes and dentries:
inode:
- Add rcu based inode lookup variants.
They avoid one inode hash lock acquire in the common case thereby
significantly reducing contention. We already support RCU-based
operations but didn't take advantage of them during inode
insertion.
Callers of iget_locked() get the improvement without any code
changes. Callers that need a custom callback can switch to
iget5_locked_rcu() as e.g., did btrfs.
With 20 threads each walking a dedicated 1000 dirs * 1000 files
directory tree to stat(2) on a 32 core + 24GB ram vm:
before: 3.54s user 892.30s system 1966% cpu 45.549 total
after: 3.28s user 738.66s system 1955% cpu 37.932 total (-16.7%)
Long-term we should pick up the effort to introduce more
fine-grained locking and possibly improve on the currently used
hash implementation.
- Start zeroing i_state in inode_init_always() instead of doing it in
individual filesystems.
This allows us to remove an unneeded lock acquire in new_inode()
and not burden individual filesystems with this.
dcache:
- Move d_lockref out of the area used by RCU lookup to avoid
cacheline ping poing because the embedded name is sharing a
cacheline with d_lockref.
- Fix dentry size on 32bit with CONFIG_SMP=y so it does actually end
up with 128 bytes in total"
* tag 'vfs-6.11.inode' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
fs: fix dentry size
vfs: move d_lockref out of the area used by RCU lookup
bcachefs: remove now spurious i_state initialization
xfs: remove now spurious i_state initialization in xfs_inode_alloc
vfs: partially sanitize i_state zeroing on inode creation
xfs: preserve i_state around inode_init_always in xfs_reinit_inode
btrfs: use iget5_locked_rcu
vfs: add rcu-based find_inode variants for iget ops
