[PATCH 3/4] xfs: remove most in-flight buffer accounting

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

 



The buffer cache keeps a bt_io_count per-CPU counter to track all
in-flight I/O, which is used to ensure no I/O is in flight when
unmounting the file system.

For most I/O we already keep track of inflight I/O at higher levels:

 - for synchronous I/O (xfs_buf_read/xfs_bwrite/xfs_buf_delwri_submit),
   the caller has a reference and waits for I/O completions using
   xfs_buf_iowait
 - for xfs_buf_delwri_submit the only caller (AIL writeback) tracks the
   log items that the buffer attached to

This only leaves only xfs_buf_readahead_map as a submitter of
asynchronous I/O that is not tracked by anything else.  Replace the
bt_io_count per-cpu counter with a more specific bt_readahead_count
counter only tracking readahead I/O.  This allows to simply increment
it when submitting readahead I/O and decrementing it when it completed,
and thus simplify xfs_buf_rele and remove the needed for the
XBF_NO_IOACCT flags and the XFS_BSTATE_IN_FLIGHT buffer state.
