Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 0/9] Suppress negative dentry
Date: Fri, 15 May 2020 15:20:38 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200515072047.31454-1-cgxu519@mykernel.net> (raw)
This series adds a new lookup flag LOOKUP_DONTCACHE_NEGATIVE
to indicate to drop negative dentry in slow path of lookup.
In overlayfs, negative dentries in upper/lower layers are useless
after construction of overlayfs' own dentry, so in order to
effectively reclaim those dentries, specify LOOKUP_DONTCACHE_NEGATIVE
flag when doing lookup in upper/lower layers.
Patch 1 adds flag LOOKUP_DONTCACHE_NEGATIVE and related logic in vfs layer.
Patch 2 does lookup optimazation for overlayfs.
Patch 3-9 just adjusts function argument when calling
lookup_positive_unlocked() and lookup_one_len_unlocked().
v1->v2:
- Only drop negative dentry in slow path of lookup.
v2->v3:
- Drop negative dentry in vfs layer.
- Rebase on latest linus-tree(5.7.0-rc5).
Chengguang Xu (9):
fs/dcache: Introduce a new lookup flag LOOKUP_DONTCACHE_NEGATIVE
ovl: Suppress negative dentry in lookup
cifs: Adjust argument for lookup_positive_unlocked()
debugfs: Adjust argument for lookup_positive_unlocked()
ecryptfs: Adjust argument for lookup_one_len_unlocked()
exportfs: Adjust argument for lookup_one_len_unlocked()
kernfs: Adjust argument for lookup_positive_unlocked()
nfsd: Adjust argument for lookup_positive_unlocked()
quota: Adjust argument for lookup_positive_unlocked()
