From b647c35f77af9c07d336247b23014596e9f0a593 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Layton Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2010 11:16:44 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] cifs: convert tlink_tree to a rbtree Radix trees are ideal when you want to track a bunch of pointers and can't embed a tracking structure within the target of those pointers. The tradeoff is an increase in memory, particularly if the tree is sparse. In CIFS, we use the tlink_tree to track tcon_link structs. A tcon_link can never be in more than one tlink_tree, so there's no impediment to using a rb_tree here instead of a radix tree. Convert the new multiuser mount code to use a rb_tree instead. This should reduce the memory required to manage the tlink_tree. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Steve French --- Reading git-format-patch failed
