You could have one task set the sentinel, call get_richacl and fail, but then a concurrent task also issues a get_richacl and succeeds. That task will get its acl, but it doesn't end up getting cached and subsequent callers then have to reissue the request. It would be good if the first successful fetch of the acl sets it in the cache. That said, getting the acl could be pretty expensive with some filesystems. NFS or CIFS are going to have to do an on the wire call to fetch them, for instance.

However, this does look like it's subject to a thundering herd problem. If 30000 processes all look at the ACL at the same time on a network fs, could that cause 30000 RPC calls to be transmitted for the same thing? David

NFS or CIFS are going to have to do an on the wire call to fetch them, for instance. I think it would be better to have concurrent callers wait for the first caller's result instead of issuing parallel get_richacl requests. Making successive callers wait on the first caller should certainly be possible, for POSIX ACLs as well as for Richacls. For network filesystems, an improvement should be measurable. I'm thinking of an approach similar to __wait_on_freeing_inode which uses a hash table of wait queues instead of per-inode ones. It's a bit tricky to get this right, though. >> + /* >> + * Cache the result, but only if our sentinel is still in place. >> + */ >> + richacl_get(acl); >> + if (unlikely(cmpxchg(&inode->i_acl, sentinel, &acl->a_base) != sentinel)) >> + richacl_put(acl); >> + return acl; >> +} >> +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(get_richacl); >> + >> /** >> * richacl_alloc - allocate a richacl >> * @count: number of entries >> diff --git a/include/linux/fs.h b/include/linux/fs.h >> index ac96bda..4d72a6d 100644 >> --- a/include/linux/fs.h >> +++ b/include/linux/fs.h >> @@ -589,6 +589,7 @@ struct base_acl { >> }; >> }; >> struct posix_acl; >> +struct richacl; >> #define ACL_NOT_CACHED ((void *)(-1)) >> >> static inline struct base_acl * >> @@ -619,9 +620,11 @@ struct inode { >> kgid_t i_gid; >> unsigned int i_flags; >> >> -#if defined(CONFIG_FS_POSIX_ACL) >> +#if defined(CONFIG_FS_POSIX_ACL) || defined(CONFIG_FS_RICHACL) >> struct base_acl *i_acl; >> +# if defined(CONFIG_FS_POSIX_ACL) >> struct base_acl *i_default_acl; >> +# endif >> #endif >> > > Oh, so if we compile in richacls and not posix acls, we shrink the > inode by a pointer.
