[PATCH RFC 4/6] dcache: stop walking siblings if remaining dentries all negative

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

 



From: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Most walkers are interested only in positive dentries.

Changes in simple_* libfs helpers are mostly cosmetic: it shouldn't cache
negative dentries unless uses d_delete other than always_delete_dentry().
