From: Andrew Perepechko <c17827@xxxxxxxx> The refill operation of the xattr cache does not know the reply size in advance, so it makes a guess based on the maxeasize value returned by the MDS. In practice, it allocates 16 KiB for the common case and 4 MiB for the large xattr case. However, a typical reply is just a few hundred bytes. If we follow the conservative approach, we can prepare a single memory page for the reply. It is large enough for any reasonable xattr set and, at the same time, it does not require multiple page memory reclaim, which can be costly. If, for a specific file, the reply is larger than a single page, the client is prepared to handle that and will fall back to non-cached xattr code. Indeed, if this happens often and xattrs are often used to store large values, it makes sense to disable the xattr cache at all since it wasn't designed for such [mis]use.
