[PATCH v2 16/31] NFSD: Fix the filecache LRU shrinker

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

 



Without LRU item rotation, the shrinker visits only a few items on
the end of the LRU list, and those would always be long-term OPEN
files for NFSv4 workloads. That makes the filecache shrinker
completely ineffective.

Adopt the same strategy as the inode LRU by using LRU_ROTATE.
