From c7e7c04274b13f98f758fb69b03f2ab61976ea80 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Kent Date: Fri, 16 Jul 2021 17:28:24 +0800 Subject: kernfs: use VFS negative dentry caching If there are many lookups for non-existent paths these negative lookups can lead to a lot of overhead during path walks. The VFS allows dentries to be created as negative and hashed, and caches them so they can be used to reduce the fairly high overhead alloc/free cycle that occurs during these lookups. Use the kernfs node parent revision to identify if a change has been made to the containing directory so that the negative dentry can be discarded and the lookup redone.
