Andrew Morton d8733c2956 [PATCH] ext3_readdir: use generic readahead
Linus points out that ext3_readdir's readahead only cuts in when
ext3_readdir() is operating at the very start of the directory.  So for large
directories we end up performing no readahead at all and we suck.

So take it all out and use the core VM's page_cache_readahead().  This means
that ext3 directory reads will use all of readahead's dynamic sizing goop.

Note that we're using the directory's filp->f_ra to hold the readahead state,
but readahead is actually being performed against the underlying blockdev's
address_space.  Fortunately the readahead code is all set up to handle this.

Tested with printk.  It works.  I was struggling to find a real workload which
actually cared.

(The patch also exports page_cache_readahead() to GPL modules)

* Readahead design.
*
* The fields in struct file_ra_state represent the most-recently-executed
* readahead attempt:
*
* start: Page index at which we started the readahead
* size: Number of pages in that read
* Together, these form the "current window".
* Together, start and size represent the `readahead window'.
* prev_page: The page which the readahead algorithm most-recently inspected.
* It is mainly used to detect sequential file reading.
* If page_cache_readahead sees that it is again being called for
* a page which it just looked at, it can return immediately without
* making any state changes.
* ahead_start,
* ahead_size: Together, these form the "ahead window".
* ra_pages: The externally controlled max readahead for this fd.
*
* When readahead is in the off state (size == 0), readahead is disabled.
* In this state, prev_page is used to detect the resumption of sequential I/O.
*
* The readahead code manages two windows - the "current" and the "ahead"
* windows. The intent is that while the application is walking the pages
* in the current window, I/O is underway on the ahead window. When the
* current window is fully traversed, it is replaced by the ahead window
* and the ahead window is invalidated. When this copying happens, the
* new current window's pages are probably still locked. So
* we submit a new batch of I/O immediately, creating a new ahead window.
*
* So:
*
* ----|----------------|----------------|-----
* ^start ^start+size
* ^ahead_start ^ahead_start+ahead_size
*
* ^ When this page is read, we submit I/O for the
* ahead window.
*
* A `readahead hit' occurs when a read request is made against a page which is
* the next sequential page. Ahead window calculations are done only when it
* is time to submit a new IO. The code ramps up the size agressively at first,
* but slow down as it approaches max_readhead.
*
* Any seek/ramdom IO will result in readahead being turned off. It will resume
* at the first sequential access.
*
* 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.
*
* This function is to be called for every read request, rather than when
* it is time to perform readahead. It is called only once for the entire I/O
* regardless of size unless readahead is unable to start enough I/O to satisfy
* the request (I/O request > max_readahead).
*/
