[PATCH] fs: bump inode and dentry counters to long

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

 



There are situations in very large machines in which we can have a large
quantity of dirty inodes, unused dentries, etc. This is particularly
true when umounting a filesystem, where eventually since every live
object will eventually be discarded.

Dave Chinner reported a problem with this while experimenting with the
shrinker revamp patchset. So we believe it is time for a change. This
patch just moves int to longs. Machines where it matters should have a
big long anyway.
