[PATCH v1 2/3] fat: mark fsinfo as dirty less often

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

 



From: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This is a preparation patch which amends several functions in fatent.c
and makes them call 'fat_mark_fsinfo_dirty()' only once at the end
versus many times in the loop as it is now. Also, this patch makes sure
'fat_mark_fsinfo_dirty()' is called only after we have unlocked the FAT
table ('unlock_fat()').

The reason for this patch is that 'fat_mark_fsinfo_dirty()' will soon
become a bit heavier so it is better to avoid calling it unnecessarily
and while having the FAT table locked.
