nfsd: scale up the number of DRC hash buckets with cache size
We've now increased the size of the duplicate reply cache by quite a bit, but the number of hash buckets has not changed. So, we've gone from an average hash chain length of 16 in the old code to 4096 when the cache is its largest. Change the code to scale out the number of buckets with the max size of the cache. At the same time, we also need to fix the hash function since the existing one isn't really suitable when there are more than 256 buckets. Move instead to use the stock hash_32 function for this. Testing on a machine that had 2048 buckets showed that this gave a smaller longest:average ratio than the existing hash function: The formula here is longest hash bucket searched divided by average number of entries per bucket at the time that we saw that longest bucket: old hash: 68/(39258/2048) == 3.547404 hash_32: 45/(33773/2048) == 2.728807 Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J.
