[ Upstream commit c6e2f52e3051e8d898d38840104638ca8bbcdec2 ] When directory iterate and lookup is called, there's a buggy rewinding of start point for traversing cluster chain to the parent directory entry's first cluster. This caused repeated cluster chain traversing from the first entry of the parent directory that would show worse performance if huge amounts of files exist under the parent directory. Fix not to rewind, make continue from currently referenced cluster and dir entry. Tested with 50,000 files under single directory / 256GB sdcard, with command "time ls -l > /dev/null", Before : 0m08.69s real 0m00.27s user 0m05.91s system After : 0m07.01s real 0m00.25s user 0m04.34s system Signed-off-by: Hyeongseok Kim <hyeongseok@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Sungjong Seo <sj1557.seo@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Namjae Jeon <namjae.jeon@samsung.com> Stable-dep-of: d42334578eba ("exfat: check if filename entries exceeds max filename length") Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>

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.
