[PATCH 10/16] writeback: move backing_dev_info->wb_lock and ->worklist into bdi_writeback

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

 



Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
and the role of the separation is unclear.  For cgroup support for
writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi.  To achieve
that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
IOs for a cgroup independently.

This patch moves bdi->wb_lock and ->worklist into wb.

* The lock protects bdi->worklist and bdi->wb.dwork scheduling.  While
  moving, rename it to wb->work_lock as wb->wb_lock is confusing.
  Also, move wb->dwork downwards so that it's colocated with the new
  ->work_lock and ->work_list fields.

* bdi_writeback_workfn()		-> wb_workfn()
  bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed(bdi)	-> wb_wakeup_delayed(wb)
  bdi_wakeup_thread(bdi)		-> wb_wakeup(wb)
  bdi_queue_work(bdi, ...)		-> wb_queue_work(wb, ...)
  __bdi_start_writeback(bdi, ...)	-> __wb_start_writeback(wb, ...)
  get_next_work_item(bdi)		-> get_next_work_item(wb)

* bdi_wb_shutdown() is renamed to wb_shutdown() and now takes @wb.
  The function contained parts which belong to the containing bdi
  rather than the wb itself - testing cap_writeback_dirty and
  bdi_remove_from_list() invocation.  Those are moved to
  bdi_unregister().

* bdi_wb_{init|exit}() are renamed to wb_{init|exit}().
  Initializations of the moved bdi->wb_lock and ->work_list are
  relocated from bdi_init() to wb_init().

* As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
  uses of bdi->state are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.state
  introducing no behavior changes.
