[PATCH V10 10/11] fs: Introduce DCACHE_DONTCACHE

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx>

DCACHE_DONTCACHE indicates a dentry should not be cached on final
dput().

Also add a helper function to mark DCACHE_DONTCACHE on all dentries
pointing to a specific inode when that inode is being set I_DONTCACHE.

This facilitates dropping dentry references to inodes sooner which
require eviction to swap S_DAX mode.
