David Howells 6a51091d07 NFS: Add some new I/O counters for FS-Cache doing things for NFS
Add some new NFS I/O counters for FS-Cache doing things for NFS.  A new line is
emitted into /proc/pid/mountstats if caching is enabled that looks like:

	fsc: <rok> <rfl> <wok> <wfl> <unc>

Where <rok> is the number of pages read successfully from the cache, <rfl> is
the number of failed page reads against the cache, <wok> is the number of
successful page writes to the cache, <wfl> is the number of failed page writes
to the cache, and <unc> is the number of NFS pages that have been disconnected
from the cache.

* User-space visible declarations for NFS client per-mount
* point statistics
*
* Copyright (C) 2005, 2006 Chuck Lever <cel@netapp.com>
*
* NFS client per-mount statistics provide information about the
* health of the NFS client and the health of each NFS mount point.
* Generally these are not for detailed problem diagnosis, but
* simply to indicate that there is a problem.
*
* These counters are not meant to be human-readable, but are meant
* to be integrated into system monitoring tools such as "sar" and
* "iostat". As such, the counters are sampled by the tools over
* time, and are never zeroed after a file system is mounted.
* Moving averages can be computed by the tools by taking the
* difference between two instantaneous samples and dividing that
* by the time between the samples.

/*
* NFS byte counters
*
* 1. SERVER - the number of payload bytes read from or written
* to the server by the NFS client via an NFS READ or WRITE
* request.
*
* 2. NORMAL - the number of bytes read or written by applications
* via the read(2) and write(2) system call interfaces.
*
* 3. DIRECT - the number of bytes read or written from files
* opened with the O_DIRECT flag.
*
* These counters give a view of the data throughput into and out
* of the NFS client. Comparing the number of bytes requested by
* an application with the number of bytes the client requests from
* the server can provide an indication of client efficiency
* (per-op, cache hits, etc).
*
* These counters can also help characterize which access methods
* are in use. DIRECT by itself shows whether there is any O_DIRECT
* traffic. NORMAL + DIRECT shows how much data is going through
* the system call interface. A large amount of SERVER traffic
* without much NORMAL or DIRECT traffic shows that applications
* are using mapped files.
*
* NFS page counters
*
* These count the number of pages read or written via nfs_readpage(),
* nfs_readpages(), or their write equivalents.
*
* NB: When adding new byte counters, please include the measured
* units in the name of each byte counter to help users of this
* interface determine what exactly is being counted.

* NFS event counters
*
* These counters provide a low-overhead way of monitoring client
* activity without enabling NFS trace debugging. The counters
* show the rate at which VFS requests are made, and how often the
* client invalidates its data and attribute caches. This allows
* system administrators to monitor such things as how close-to-open
* is working, and answer questions such as "why are there so many
* GETATTR requests on the wire?"
*
* They also count anamolous events such as short reads and writes,
* silly renames due to close-after-delete, and operations that
* change the size of a file (such operations can often be the
* source of data corruption if applications aren't using file
* locking properly).
