Re: [PATCH] block: move .bd_inode into 1st cacheline of block_device

Hi,

在 2023/11/21 18:11, Ming Lei 写道:
The .bd_inode field of block_device is used in IO fast path of
blkdev_write_iter() and blkdev_llseek(), so it is more efficient to keep
it into the 1st cacheline.

.bd_openers is only touched in open()/close(), and .bd_size_lock is only
for updating bdev capacity, which is in slow path too.

So swap .bd_inode layout with .bd_openers & .bd_size_lock to move
.bd_inode into the 1st cache line.

This patch looks good, do you want me do take it for a v3 for the
other patchset?

And by the way, can we also move 'int bd_writers' to near 'atomic_t
bd_fsfreeze_count' to save 8 bytes(int 64bit platform)?
