Subject: [patch 054/123] sysfs: Cache the last sysfs_dirent to improve readdir scalability v2
2.6.33-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
-----------------
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@...ssion.com>
commit 1e5289c97bba2d8ee7239a416bc3f28743362cd9 upstream.
When sysfs_readdir stops short we now cache the next
sysfs_dirent to return to user space in filp->private_data.
There is no impact on the rest of sysfs by doing this and
in the common case it allows us to pick up exactly where
we left off with no seeking.
Additionally I drop and regrab the sysfs_mutex around
filldir to avoid a page fault abritrarily increasing the
hold time on the sysfs_mutex.
v2: Returned to using INT_MAX as the EOF condition.
seekdir is ambiguous unless all directory entries have
a unique f_pos value.
