[PATCH 2/9] mm: drop mmap_sem for page cache read IO submission

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

 



From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Reads can take a long time, and if anybody needs to take a write lock on
the mmap_sem it'll block any subsequent readers to the mmap_sem while
the read is outstanding, which could cause long delays.  Instead drop
the mmap_sem if we do any reads at all.
