Share the same page flag bit for PG_readahead and PG_reclaim. One is used only on file reads, another is only for emergency writes. One is used mostly for fresh/young pages, another is for old pages. Combinations of possible interactions are: a) clear PG_reclaim => implicit clear of PG_readahead it will delay an asynchronous readahead into a synchronous one it actually does _good_ for readahead: the pages will be reclaimed soon, it's readahead thrashing! in this case, synchronous readahead makes more sense. b) clear PG_readahead => implicit clear of PG_reclaim one(and only one) page will not be reclaimed in time it can be avoided by checking PageWriteback(page) in readahead first c) set PG_reclaim => implicit set of PG_readahead will confuse readahead and make it restart the size rampup process it's a trivial problem, and can mostly be avoided by checking PageWriteback(page) first in readahead d) set PG_readahead => implicit set of PG_reclaim PG_readahead will never be set on already cached pages. PG_reclaim will always be cleared on dirtying a page. so not a problem. In summary, a) we get better behavior b,d) possible interactions can be avoided c) racy condition exists that might affect readahead, but the chance is _really_ low, and the hurt on readahead is trivial. Compound pages also use PG_reclaim, but for now they do not interact with reclaim/readahead code.

|

* [la_index, lookahead_index] is where the application would be walking(in

|
* the common case of cache-cold sequential reads): the last window was
|
|
* established when the application was at la_index, and the next window will
|
|
* be bring in when the application reaches lookahead_index.
|
|
*
|
|
* 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 early as the application
|
|
* reads on the page at lookahead_index. Normally lookahead_index will be
|
|
* equal to ra_index, 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 lookahead_index 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_index tracks the last visited page 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.
|
|
*
|
