Jan Kara authored
When quota is being turned off we assumed that all the references to dquots were already dropped. That need not be true as inodes being deleted are not on superblock's inodes list and hence we need not reach it when removing quota references from inodes. So invalidate_dquots() has to wait for all the users of dquots (as quota is already marked as turned off, no new references can be acquired and so this is bound to happen rather early). When we do this, we can also remove the iprune_sem locking as it was protecting us against exactly the same problem when freeing inodes icache memory.

Seems like needless clutter having a bunch of #if defined(CONFIG_$ARCH) in include/linux/cache.h. Move the per architecture section definition to asm/cache.h, and keep the if-not-defined dummy case in linux/cache.h to catch architectures which don't implement the section. Verified that symbols still go in .data.read_mostly on parisc, and the compile doesn't break.

Since early 2.4.x all cdrom drivers implement the block_device methods themselves, so they can handle additional ioctls directly instead of going through the cdrom layer.

Avoid taking the global tasklist_lock when possible, if a process is single threaded during getrusage(). Any avoidance of tasklist_lock is good for NUMA boxes (and possibly for large SMPs).

1) Reduce the size of (struct fdtable) to exactly 64 bytes on 32bits platforms, lowering kmalloc() allocated space by 50%. 2) Reduce the size of (files_struct), using a special 32 bits (or 64bits) embedded_fd_set, instead of a 1024 bits fd_set for the close_on_exec_init and open_fds_init fields. This save some ram (248 bytes per task) as most tasks dont open more than 32 files. D-Cache footprint for such tasks is also reduced to the minimum. 3) Reduce size of allocated fdset. Currently two full pages are allocated, that is 32768 bits on x86 for example, and way too much. The minimum is now L1_CACHE_BYTES. UP and SMP should benefit from this patch, because most tasks will touch only one cache line when open()/close() stdin/stdout/stderr (0/1/2), (next_fd, close_on_exec_init, open_fds_init, fd_array[0 .. 2] being in the same cache line) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Andrew Morton authored
Linus points out that ext3_readdir's readahead only cuts in when ext3_readdir() is operating at the very start of the directory. So for large directories we end up performing no readahead at all and we suck. So take it all out and use the core VM's page_cache_readahead(). This means that ext3 directory reads will use all of readahead's dynamic sizing goop. Note that we're using the directory's filp->f_ra to hold the readahead state, but readahead is actually being performed against the underlying blockdev's address_space. Fortunately the readahead code is all set up to handle this. Tested with printk. It works. I was struggling to find a real workload which actually cared. (The patch also exports page_cache_readahead() to GPL modules) Cc: "Stephen C. Tweedie" <sct@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
