quota: dqio_mutex design

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

 



Hello!

We have a heavy metadata related workload (ext4, quota journalling)
and profiling shows that there's significant dqio_mutex contention.

>From the quota code, it looks like every time dqio_mutex is taken
it protects access to only one quota file.

Is it possible to split dqio_mutex for each of MAXQUOTAS so that
e.g. 2 parallel dquot_commit()'s can be running for user and group
quota update? Am I missing any dqio_mutex function that requires
dqio_mutex to be monolithic?

Thank you,
Andrew
