Hi Al, Jens,
this is the third or fourth attempt. Al, would you please take a look
at this? Would it be possible to get your ack and then merge this
via Jens' tree?
The patches attempt to optimize the periodic write-back and stop it when
there are no dirty data. IOW, we do not want the thread to wake up every
5 seconds (by default), find there is nothing to do, and so on. We want
to save power instead.
The patches are against Jens Axboe's per-bdi write-back tree. Namely,
against:
git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block.git writeback-v12
Patches 01-16 introduce 2 VFS helpers and wrap all 'sb->s_dirt'
manipulations.
Patch 17 re-names s_dirt to s_dirty in order to make sure we catch
all direct s_dirt accesses.
Patch 18 optimizes the periodic 'sync_supers' thread. This used
to be 'pdflush', but Jens re-worked this area and now it is called
'sync_supers'. By the way, with Jens' changes the former kupdated stuff
stuff looks a lot cleaner and it is easier to work on top of that.

Best Regards,
Artem Bityutskiy (Артём Битюцкий)
This patch introduces 3 new VFS helpers: 'mark_sb_dirty()',
'mark_sb_clean()', and 'is_sb_dirty()'. The helpers simply
set 'sb->s_dirt' or test 'sb->s_dirt'. The plan is to make
every FS use these helpers instead of manipulating
'sb->s_dirt' directly. And the further plan is to stop the
periodic write-back when there is no dirt.
This patch is just a preparation for further periodic write-back
timer optimizations. No functional changes yet.

1.6.0.6
The sync_supers thread wakes up every 5 seconds (by default) and
writes back all super blocks. It keeps waking up even if there
are no dirty super-blocks.
This patch improves it and makes sleep if there is nothing to do.
This optimization is quite important for small battery-powered
devices.

In order to make sure no one uses 's_dirt' directly any more,
re-name it to 's_dirty'.

Is waking up every 5 seconds really a problem?
The normal rule of thumb is iirc that longer sleep times than a few hundred
ms give dimishing returns in terms of power saving.
A simple way might be simple to batch the timer better with other timers.

Yes, it is. In OMAP3 we may switch the core and most of peripherals
to off and we may stay in off and consume really few power. And waking
up from off every 5 seconds for no good reason is bad.

I think our pm guys measured this on OMAP3 and it translates to
~hour of idle mode. And yes, this is bad for devices which
run from battery.
> A simple way might be simple to batch the timer better with other timers.
I agree. There is a lot of work in this direction. There are many
places where we could use range hrtimers or deferrable timers
and improve PM. But I consider this to be the second level of
optimization. The first level is to get rid of unneeded events
completely.

Hi Artem.
Linus has pulled the exofs tree for 2.6.31-rc3 if you sync
with it you'll find one more simple call site for is_sb_dirty(sb).
(See below)
Thanks
