[PATCH v2 12/14] locks: give the blocked_hash its own spinlock

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

 



There's no reason we have to protect the blocked_hash and file_lock_list
with the same spinlock. With the tests I have, breaking it in two gives
a barely measurable performance benefit, but it seems reasonable to make
this locking as granular as possible.

 detection, since the code has to chase down the owners of locks that may
 be entirely unrelated to the one on which the lock is being acquired.

+For deadlock detection however, the blocked_hash_lock is also held. The
 fact that these locks are held ensures that the file_locks do not
 disappear out from under you while doing the comparison or generating an
 owner key.
