187 | * Readahead design. | ||
188 | * | ||
189 | * The fields in struct file_ra_state represent the most-recently-executed | ||
190 | * readahead attempt: | ||
191 | * | ||
192 | * start: Page index at which we started the readahead | ||
193 | * size: Number of pages in that read | ||
194 | * Together, these form the "current window". | ||
195 | * Together, start and size represent the `readahead window'. | ||
196 | * prev_page: The page which the readahead algorithm most-recently inspected. | ||
197 | * It is mainly used to detect sequential file reading. | ||
198 | * If page_cache_readahead sees that it is again being called for | ||
199 | * a page which it just looked at, it can return immediately without | ||
200 | * making any state changes. | ||
201 | * ahead_start, | ||
202 | * ahead_size: Together, these form the "ahead window". | ||
203 | * ra_pages: The externally controlled max readahead for this fd. | ||
204 | * | ||
205 | * When readahead is in the off state (size == 0), readahead is disabled. | ||
206 | * In this state, prev_page is used to detect the resumption of sequential I/O. | ||
207 | * | ||
208 | * The readahead code manages two windows - the "current" and the "ahead" | ||
209 | * windows. The intent is that while the application is walking the pages | ||
210 | * in the current window, I/O is underway on the ahead window. When the | ||
211 | * current window is fully traversed, it is replaced by the ahead window | ||
212 | * and the ahead window is invalidated. When this copying happens, the | ||
213 | * new current window's pages are probably still locked. So | ||
214 | * we submit a new batch of I/O immediately, creating a new ahead window. | ||
215 | * | ||
216 | * So: | ||
217 | * | ||
218 | * ----|----------------|----------------|----- | ||
219 | * ^start ^start+size | ||
220 | * ^ahead_start ^ahead_start+ahead_size | ||
221 | * | ||
222 | * ^ When this page is read, we submit I/O for the | ||
223 | * ahead window. | ||
224 | * | ||
225 | * A `readahead hit' occurs when a read request is made against a page which is | ||
226 | * the next sequential page. Ahead window calculations are done only when it | ||
227 | * is time to submit a new IO. The code ramps up the size agressively at first, | ||
228 | * but slow down as it approaches max_readhead. | ||
229 | * | ||
230 | * Any seek/ramdom IO will result in readahead being turned off. It will resume | ||
231 | * at the first sequential access. | ||
232 | * | ||
233 | * There is a special-case: if the first page which the application tries to | ||
234 | * read happens to be the first page of the file, it is assumed that a linear | ||
235 | * read is about to happen and the window is immediately set to the initial size | ||
236 | * based on I/O request size and the max_readahead. | ||
237 | * | ||
238 | * This function is to be called for every read request, rather than when | ||
239 | * it is time to perform readahead. It is called only once for the entire I/O | ||
240 | * regardless of size unless readahead is unable to start enough I/O to satisfy | ||
241 | * the request (I/O request > max_readahead). | ||
