Could this be expensive? There's potentially a lease attempt on every NFSv4 open. Could we use the cache to decide whether a delegation's a good idea? (So, skip requesting the delegation if the cache gives evidence of recent activity on the file that would have conflicted with the delegation we're about to grant.) That might avoid unnecessary cache purges too. --b. > > Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton > --- > fs/locks.c | 15 +++++++++++++++ > fs/nfsd/filecache.c | 27 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > include/linux/fs.h | 1 + > 3 files changed, 43 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/fs/locks.c b/fs/locks.c > index d3d558ba4da7..c81b96159e5c 100644 > --- a/fs/locks.c > +++ b/fs/locks.c > @@ -167,6 +167,13 @@ DEFINE_STATIC_LGLOCK(file_lock_lglock); > static DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct hlist_head, file_lock_list); > > /* > + * Some subsystems would like to be notified if someone attempts to set a > + * lease on a file.
