+LU-50 ldiskfs: pdirops patch for ldiskfs
 
- In a typical use case an application creates a separate output file for each
- node and task in a job. As nodes and tasks increase, hundreds of thousands of
- files may be created in a single directory within a short window of time.
- Today, both filename lookup and file system modifying operations (such as
- create and unlink) are protected with a single lock for an entire ldiskfs
- directory. PDO project will remove this bottleneck by introducing a parallel
- locking mechanism for entire ldiskfs directories. This work will enable
- multiple application threads to simultaneously lookup, create and unlink in
- parallel.
