From dae2f8ed7992e88c8d62c54e8295ffc8475b4a80 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ira Weiny Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2020 07:41:37 -0700 Subject: fs: Lift XFS_IDONTCACHE to the VFS layer DAX effective mode (S_DAX) changes requires inode eviction. XFS has an advisory flag (XFS_IDONTCACHE) to prevent caching of the inode if no other additional references are taken. We lift this flag to the VFS layer and change the behavior slightly by allowing the flag to remain even if multiple references are taken. This will expedite the eviction of inodes to change S_DAX.

Also add a helper function to mark DCACHE_DONTCACHE on all dentries pointing to a specific inode when that inode is being set I_DONTCACHE. This facilitates dropping dentry references to inodes sooner which require eviction to swap S_DAX mode. Cc: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Ira Weiny Reviewed-by: Jan Kara Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
