[PATCH] fscrypto: try to avoid refing parent dentry in fscrypt_file_open

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

 



Merely checking if the directory is encrypted happens for every open
when using ext4, at the moment refing and unrefing the parent, costing 2
atomics and serializing opens of different files.

The most common case of encryption not being used can be checked for
with RCU instead.

Sample result from open1_processes -t 20 ("Separate file open/close") from
will-it-scale on Sapphire Rapids (ops/s):
before:	12539898
after:	25575494 (+103%)

Arguably a vfs helper would be nice here.
