[PATCH 3/5] fs: lockless mntns rbtree lookup

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

 



Currently we use a read-write lock but for the simple search case we can
make this lockless. Creating a new mount namespace is a rather rare
event compared with querying mounts in a foreign mount namespace. Once
this is picked up by e.g., systemd to list mounts in another mount in
it's isolated services or in containers this will be used a lot so this
seems worthwhile doing.
