From b4d693fcc5fe99ed211addb5c6a0f8398f0b266e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tao Ma Date: Mon, 16 Aug 2010 16:58:21 +0800 Subject: ocfs2: Cache system inodes of other slots. Durring orphan scan, if we are slot 0, and we are replaying orphan_dir:0001, the general process is that for every file in this dir: 1. we will iget orphan_dir:0001, since there is no inode for it. we will have to create an inode and read it from the disk. 2. do the normal work, such as delete_inode and remove it from the dir if it is allowed. 3. call iput orphan_dir:0001 when we are done. In this case, since we have no dcache for this inode, i_count will reach 0, and VFS will have to call clear_inode and in ocfs2_clear_inode we will checkpoint the inode which will let ocfs2_cmt and journald begin to work. 4. We loop back to 1 for the next file. So you see, actually for every deleted file, we have to read the orphan dir from the disk and checkpoint the journal. It is very time consuming and cause a lot of journal checkpoint I/O. A better solution is that we can have another reference for these inodes in ocfs2_super. So if there is no other race among nodes(which will let dlmglue to checkpoint the inode), for step 3, clear_inode won't be called and for step 1, we may only need to read the inode for the 1st time. This is a big win for us. So this patch will try to cache system inodes of other slots so that we will have one more reference for these inodes and avoid the extra inode read and journal checkpoint.
