[PATCH 11/14] btrfs: Use inode_lock_shared() for direct writes within EOF

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

 



From: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@xxxxxxxx>

Direct writes within EOF are safe to be performed with inode shared lock
to improve parallelization with other direct writes or reads because EOF
is not changed and there is no race with truncate().

Direct reads are already performed under shared inode lock.

This patch is precursor to removing btrfs_inode->dio_sem.
