When we read some part of a file through pagecache, if there is a
pagecache of corresponding index but this page is not uptodate, read IO
is issued and this page will be uptodate.
I think this is good for pagesize == blocksize environment but there is
room for improvement on pagesize != blocksize environment. Because in
this case a page can have multiple buffers and even if a page is not
uptodate, some buffers can be uptodate.
So I suggest that when all buffers which correspond to a part of a file
that we want to read are uptodate, use this pagecache and copy data from
this pagecache to user buffer even if a page is not uptodate. This can
reduce read IO and improve system throughput.
I wrote a benchmark program and got result number with this program.
This benchmark do:
1: mount and open a test file.
2: create a 512MB file.
3: close a file and umount.
4: mount and again open a test file.
5: pwrite randomly 300000 times on a test file. offset is aligned
by IO size(1024bytes).
6: measure time of preading randomly 100000 times on a test file.
The result was:
2.6.26
330 sec
2.6.26-patched
226 sec
Arch:i386
Filesystem:ext3
Blocksize:1024 bytes
Memory: 1GB
On ext3/4, a file is written through buffer/block. So random read/write
mixed workloads or random read after random write workloads are optimized
with this patch under pagesize != blocksize environment. This test result
showed this.
The benchmark program is as follows:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <time.h>

}
memset(buf, 0, LEN);

Alter the block device ->direct_access() API to work with the new

Some architectures will not do the right thing in their virt_to_page() for use
by XIP (to translate from the kernel virtual address returned by
direct_access(), to a user mappable pfn in XIP's page fault handler.
However, we can't switch it to just return the pfn and not the kaddr, because
we have no good way to get a kva from a pfn, and XIP requires the kva for its
read(2) and write(2) handlers. So we have to return both.

ext2_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code

This reverts commit 7c9e69faa2, fixing up
conflicts in fs/ext4/balloc.c manually.
The cost of doing the bitmap validation on each lookup - even when the
bitmap is cached - is absolutely prohibitive. We could, and probably
should, do it only when adding the bitmap to the buffer cache. However,
right now we are better off just reverting it.
Peter Zijlstra measured the cost of this extra validation as a 85%
decrease in cached iozone, and while I had a patch that took it down to
just 17% by not being _quite_ so stupid in the validation, it was still
a big slowdown that could have been avoided by just doing it right.

Using mtab is problematic for various reasons, one of them is that
unprivileged mounts won't turn up in there. So we want to get rid of it, and
use /proc/mounts instead.
But most filesystems are lazy, and are not showing all mount options. Which
means, that without mtab, the user won't be able to see some or all of the
options.
It would be nice if the generic code could remember the mount options, and
show them without the need to add extra code to filesystems. But this is not
easy, because different filesystems handle mount options given options, and
not tough the rest. This is not taken into account by mount(8) either, so
/etc/mtab will be broken in this case.
This series fixes up ->show_options() in ext[234].

Because its a better name, _mod implies modulo.

Implement nobh in new aops. This is a bit tricky. FWIW, nobh_truncate is
now implemented in a way that does not create blocks in sparse regions,
which is a silly thing for it to have been doing (isn't it?)
ext2 survives fsx and fsstress. jfs is converted as well... ext3
should be easy to do (but not done yet).
