single kernel-wide soft update lock can be replaced with a per-filesystem soft-updates lock. This per-filesystem lock will allow each filesystem to have its own soft-updates flushing thread rather than being limited to a single soft-updates flushing thread for the entire kernel. Move soft update variables out of the ufsmount structure and into their own mount_softdeps structure referenced by ufsmount field um_softdep. Eventually the per-filesystem lock will be in this structure. For now there is simply a pointer to the kernel-wide soft updates lock. Change all instances of ACQUIRE_LOCK and FREE_LOCK to pass the lock pointer in the mount_softdeps structure instead of a pointer to the kernel-wide soft-updates lock. Replace the five hash tables used by soft updates with per-filesystem copies of these tables allocated in the mount_softdeps structure. Several functions that flush dependencies when too many are allocated in the kernel used to operate across all filesystems. They are now parameterized to flush dependencies from a specified filesystem. For now, we stick with the round-robin flushing strategy when the kernel as a whole has too many dependencies allocated. While there are many lines of changes, there should be no functional change in the operation of soft updates. Tested by: Peter Holm and Scott Long Sponsored by: Netflix |
