      mmc: mmc_test: Remove set-but-unused variable. · 5a8fba52
      Chris Ball authored
      Fixes:
      
      drivers/mmc/card/mmc_test.c: In function ‘mmc_test_seq_perf’:
      drivers/mmc/card/mmc_test.c:1878:28: warning: variable ‘ts’ set but not
      used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
      
      There's no reason to be calling timespec_sub() here, because
      mmc_test_print_avg_rate() is going to do that itself.

      Christoph Hellwig authored
      Merge get_new_inode/get_new_inode_fast into iget5_locked/iget_locked
      as those were the only callers.  Remove the internal ifind/ifind_fast
      helpers - ifind_fast only had a single caller, and ifind had two
      callers wanting it to do different things.  Also clean up the comments
      in this area to focus on information important to a developer trying
      to use it, instead of overloading them with implementation details.

      fs: pull inode->i_lock up out of writeback_single_inode · 0f1b1fd8
      Dave Chinner authored
      First thing we do in writeback_single_inode() is take the i_lock and
      the last thing we do is drop it. A caller already holds the i_lock,
      so pull the i_lock out of writeback_single_inode() to reduce the
      round trips on this lock during inode writeback.

      All that remains of the inode_lock is protecting the inode hash list

      fs: remove inode_lock from iput_final and prune_icache · f283c86a
      Dave Chinner authored
      Now that inode state changes are protected by the inode->i_lock and
      the inode LRU manipulations by the inode_lru_lock, we can remove the
      inode_lock from prune_icache and the initial part of iput_final().
      
      instead of using the inode_lock to protect the inode during
      iput_final, use the inode->i_lock instead. This protects the inode
      against new references being taken while we change the inode state
      to I_FREEING, as well as preventing prune_icache from grabbing the
      inode while we are manipulating it. Hence we no longer need the
      inode_lock in iput_final prior to setting I_FREEING on the inode.
      
      For prune_icache, we no longer need the inode_lock to protect the
      LRU list, and the inodes themselves are protected against freeing
      races by the inode->i_lock. Hence we can lift the inode_lock from
      prune_icache as well.

      fs: Lock the inode LRU list separately · 02afc410
      Dave Chinner authored
      Introduce the inode_lru_lock to protect the inode_lru list. This
      lock is nested inside the inode->i_lock to allow the inode to be
      added to the LRU list in iput_final without needing to deal with
      lock inversions. This keeps iput_final() clean and neat.
      
      Further, where marking the inode I_FREEING and removing it from the
      LRU, move the LRU list manipulation within the inode->i_lock to keep
      the list manipulation consistent with iput_final. This also means
      that most of the open coded LRU list removal + unused inode
      accounting can now use the inode_lru_list_del() wrappers which
      cleans the code up further.
      
      However, this locking change means what the LRU traversal in
      prune_icache() inverts this lock ordering and needs to use trylock
      semantics on the inode->i_lock to avoid deadlocking. In these cases,
      if we fail to lock the inode we move it to the back of the LRU to
      prevent spinning on it.

      fs: factor inode disposal · b2b2af8e
      Dave Chinner authored
      We have a couple of places that dispose of inodes. factor the
      disposal into evict() to isolate this code and make it simpler to
      peel away the inode_lock from the code.
      
      While doing this, change the logic flow in iput_final() to separate
      the different cases that need to be handled to make the transitions
      the inode goes through more obvious.

      fs: protect inode->i_state with inode->i_lock · 250df6ed
      Dave Chinner authored
      Protect inode state transitions and validity checks with the
      inode->i_lock. This enables us to make inode state transitions
      independently of the inode_lock and is the first step to peeling
      away the inode_lock from the code.
      
      This requires that __iget() is done atomically with i_state checks
      during list traversals so that we don't race with another thread
      marking the inode I_FREEING between the state check and grabbing the
      reference.
      
      Also remove the unlock_new_inode() memory barrier optimisation
      required to avoid taking the inode_lock when clearing I_NEW.
      Simplify the code by simply taking the inode->i_lock around the
      state change and wakeup. Because the wakeup is no longer tricky,
      remove the wake_up_inode() function and open code the wakeup where
      necessary.

      lib, arch: add filter argument to show_mem and fix private implementations · b2b755b5
      David Rientjes authored
      Commit ddd588b5 ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from
      meminfo on oom kill") moved lib/show_mem.o out of lib/lib.a, which
      resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own
      versions of show_mem():
      
      	lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem':
      	show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem'
      	arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined here
      
      The fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in
      all implementations to prevent this breakage.
      
      Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do
      anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes
      that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the
      generic implementation.
