To reduce contention on the bucket locks, we must avoid calling kfree() while each bucket lock is held. Start by refactoring nfsd_reply_cache_free_locked() into a helper that removes an entry from the bucket (and must therefore run under the lock) and a second helper that frees the entry (which does not need to hold the lock). For readability, rename the helpers nfsd_cacherep_<verb>. Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
