6 | help | ||
7 | This option enables a generic filesystem caching manager that can be | ||
8 | used by various network and other filesystems to cache data locally. | ||
9 | Different sorts of caches can be plugged in, depending on the | ||
10 | resources available. | ||

19 | caching and exported through file: | ||
20 | |||
21 | /proc/fs/fscache/stats | ||
22 | |||
23 | The gathering of statistics adds a certain amount of overhead to | ||
24 | execution as there are a quite a few stats gathered, and on a | ||
25 | multi-CPU system these may be on cachelines that keep bouncing | ||
26 | between CPUs. On the other hand, the stats are very useful for | ||
27 | debugging purposes. Saying 'Y' here is recommended. | ||

40 | The generation of this histogram adds a certain amount of overhead to | ||
41 | execution as there are a number of points at which data is gathered, | ||
42 | and on a multi-CPU system these may be on cachelines that keep | ||
43 | bouncing between CPUs. On the other hand, the histogram may be | ||

51 | help | ||
52 | This permits debugging to be dynamically enabled in the local caching | ||
53 | management module. If this is set, the debugging output may be | ||
54 | enabled by setting bits in /sys/modules/fscache/parameter/debug. | ||
