Linux kernel stable tree
7f016edaa0
Merely checking if the directory is encrypted happens for every open
when using ext4, at the moment refing and unrefing the parent, costing 2
atomics and serializing opens of different files.
The most common case of encryption not being used can be checked for
with RCU instead.
Sample result from open1_processes -t 20 ("Separate file open/close")
from will-it-scale on Sapphire Rapids (ops/s):
before: 12539898
after: 25575494 (+103%)
v2:
- add a comment justifying rcu usage, submitted by Eric Biggers
- whack spurious IS_ENCRYPTED check from the refed case

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
