[PATCH] nfsd: Reduce contention for the nfsd_file nf_rwsem

From: trondmy@kernel.org
Date: 2021-06-17 23:26:56
Subsystem: filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), kernel nfsd, sunrpc, and lockd servers, the rest · Maintainers: Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Chuck Lever, Jeff Layton, Linus Torvalds

From: Trond Myklebust <redacted>

When flushing out the unstable file writes as part of a COMMIT call, try
to perform most of of the data writes and waits outside the semaphore.

This means that if the client is sending the COMMIT as part of a memory
reclaim operation, then it can continue performing I/O, with contention
for the lock occurring only once the data sync is finished.

Fixes: 5011af4c698a ("nfsd: Fix stable writes")
