Quite a bit of code is used in maintaining these "cached pages" that are probably pretty unlikely to get used. It would require a narrow race where the page is inserted concurrently while this process is allocating a page in order to create the spare page. Then a multi-page write into an uncached part of the file, to make use of it. Next, the buffered write path (and others) uses its own LRU pagevec when it should be just using the per-CPU LRU pagevec (which will cut down on both data and code size cacheline footprint). Also, these private LRU pagevecs are emptied after just a very short time, in contrast with the per-CPU pagevecs that are persistent. Net result: 7.3 times fewer lru_lock acquisitions required to add the pages to pagecache for a bulk write (in 4K chunks). [this gets rid of some cond_resched() calls in readahead.c and mpage.c due to clashes in -mm. What put them there, and why? ] Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

|
|
* |==================#===========================|
|
|
* ^start ^page marked with PG_readahead
|
|
*
|
|
* To overlap application thinking time and disk I/O time, we do
|
|
* `readahead pipelining': Do not wait until the application consumed all
|
|
* readahead pages and stalled on the missing page at readahead_index;
|
|
* Instead, submit an asynchronous readahead I/O as soon as there are
|
|
* only async_size pages left in the readahead window. Normally async_size
|
|
* will be equal to size, for maximum pipelining.
|
|
*
|
|
* In interleaved sequential reads, concurrent streams on the same fd can
|
|
* be invalidating each other's readahead state. So we flag the new readahead
|
|
* page at (start+size-async_size) with PG_readahead, and use it as readahead
|
|
* indicator. The flag won't be set on already cached pages, to avoid the
|
|
* readahead-for-nothing fuss, saving pointless page cache lookups.
|
|
*
|
|
* prev_pos tracks the last visited byte in the _previous_ read request.
|
|
* It should be maintained by the caller, and will be used for detecting
|
|
* small random reads. Note that the readahead algorithm checks loosely
|
|
* for sequential patterns. Hence interleaved reads might be served as
|
|
* sequential ones.
|
|
*
|
|
* There is a special-case: if the first page which the application tries to
|
|
* read happens to be the first page of the file, it is assumed that a linear
|
|
* read is about to happen and the window is immediately set to the initial size
|
|
* based on I/O request size and the max_readahead.
|

*
|
|
* The code ramps up the readahead size aggressively at first, but slow down as
