vfs: Fix pathological performance case for __alloc_fd()
Al Viro points out that: > > * [Linux-specific aside] our __alloc_fd() can degrade quite badly > > with some use patterns. The cacheline pingpong in the bitmap is probably > > inevitable, unless we accept considerably heavier memory footprint, > > but we also have a case when alloc_fd() takes O(n) and it's _not_ hard > > to trigger - close(3);open(...); will have the next open() after that > > scanning the entire in-use bitmap. And Eric Dumazet has a somewhat realistic multithreaded microbenchmark that opens and closes a lot of sockets with minimal work per socket. This patch largely fixes it. We keep a 2nd-level bitmap of the open file bitmaps, showing which words are already full. So then we can traverse that second-level bitmap to efficiently skip already allocated file descriptors. On his benchmark, this improves performance by up to an order of magnitude, by avoiding the excessive open file bitmap scanning.
