[PATCH] pipe: don't update {a,c,m}time for anonymous pipes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



These numbers are visible in fstat() but hopefully nobody uses this
information and file_accessed/file_update_time are not that cheap.
Stupid test-case:

	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <assert.h>
	#include <sys/ioctl.h>
	#include <sys/time.h>

	static char buf[17 * 4096];
	static struct timeval TW, TR;

	int wr(int fd, int size)
	{
		int c, r;
		struct timeval t0, t1;

		gettimeofday(&t0, NULL);
		for (c = 0; (r = write(fd, buf, size)) > 0; c += r);
		gettimeofday(&t1, NULL);
		timeradd(&TW, &t1, &TW);
		timersub(&TW, &t0, &TW);

		return c;
	}

	int rd(int fd, int size)
	{
		int c, r;
		struct timeval t0, t1;

		gettimeofday(&t0, NULL);
		for (c = 0; (r = read(fd, buf, size)) > 0; c += r);
		gettimeofday(&t1, NULL);
		timeradd(&TR, &t1, &TR);
		timersub(&TR, &t0, &TR);

		return c;
	}

	int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
	{
		int fd[2], nb = 1, loop, size;

		assert(argc == 3);
		loop = atoi(argv[1]);
		size = atoi(argv[2]);

		assert(pipe(fd) == 0);
		assert(ioctl(fd[0], FIONBIO, &nb) == 0);
		assert(ioctl(fd[1], FIONBIO, &nb) == 0);

		assert(size <= sizeof(buf));
		while (loop--)
			assert(wr(fd[1], size) == rd(fd[0], size));

		struct timeval tt;
		timeradd(&TW, &TR, &tt);
		printf("TW = %lu.%03lu TR = %lu.%03lu TT = %lu.%03lu\n",
			TW.tv_sec, TW.tv_usec/1000,
			TR.tv_sec, TR.tv_usec/1000,
			tt.tv_sec, tt.tv_usec/1000);

		return 0;
	}

Before:
	# for i in 1 2 3; do /host/tmp/test 10000 100; done
	TW = 8.047 TR = 5.845 TT = 13.893
	TW = 8.091 TR = 5.872 TT = 13.963
	TW = 8.083 TR = 5.885 TT = 13.969
After:
	# for i in 1 2 3; do /host/tmp/test 10000 100; done
	TW = 4.752 TR = 4.664 TT = 9.416
	TW = 4.684 TR = 4.608 TT = 9.293
	TW = 4.736 TR = 4.652 TT = 9.388
