From 2c567af418e3f9380c2051aada58b4e5a4b5c2ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ira Weiny Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2020 07:41:37 -0700 Subject: fs: Introduce DCACHE_DONTCACHE DCACHE_DONTCACHE indicates a dentry should not be cached on final dput(). 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.
