2020-07-30NFSv4.2: xattr cache: get rid of cache discard work queueFrank van der Linden
Caches should be small enough to discard them inline, so do that instead of using a work queue. Signed-off-by: Frank van der Linden <fllinden@amazon.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>
2020-07-13NFSv4.2: add client side xattr caching.Frank van der Linden
Implement client side caching for NFSv4.2 extended attributes. The cache is a per-inode hashtable, with name/value entries. There is one special entry for the listxattr cache. NFS inodes have a pointer to a cache structure. The cache structure is allocated on demand, freed when the cache is invalidated. Memory shrinkers keep the size in check. Large entries (> PAGE_SIZE) are collected by a separate shrinker, and freed more aggressively than others.
