[PATCH 2/7] fs/locks: Replace lg_global with a percpu-rwsem

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Mon Sep 05 2016 - 15:42:25 EST


Replace the global part of the lglock with a percpu-rwsem.

Since fcl_lock is a spinlock and itself nests under i_lock, which too
is a spinlock we cannot acquire sleeping locks at
locks_{insert,remove}_global_locks().

We can however wrap all fcl_lock acquisitions with percpu_down_read
such that all invocations of locks_{insert,remove}_global_locks() have
that read lock held.

This allows us to replace the lg_global part of the lglock with the
write side of the rwsem.

In the absense of writers, percpu_{down,up}_read() are free of atomic
instructions. This further avoids the very long preempt-disable
regions caused by lglock on larger machines.
