It's been a while since I wrote this code... comments below.

I'm not sure why you are reversing the sense of this computation. "directreadbytes" is the count of bytes that applications read with O_DIRECT. These are never cached, but they are counted in "serverreadbytes", so my logic subtracts them before computing the hit ratio. Was there some accounting problem you found? (If there was, it's worth stating that explicitly in the patch description).

Originally you had app_bytes_read = normalreadbytes, but that's not entirely true, since an app might be reading with O_DIRECT, therefore app_bytes_read should probably be normal + direct.

client_bytes_read seemed ambiguous to me, is that bytes being read by the host client from the server, bytes being read by the nfs client process? read_bytes_from_server seemed more logical, but in the diff block below, I've removed that altogether, and am just left with cached_read_bytes.


+            ratio = (cached_read_bytes / app_bytes_read) * 100

The other functions use (x * 100) / y -- I seem to recall there are rounding errors if you do it the way you've done it here, but I don't remember exactly what the issue was. But you are changing this one so it is different than the all the other similar computations. Can you state your reason?


since cached_read_bytes = app_bytes_read - client_bytes_read, i used (cached_read_bytes / app_bytes_read) * 100, but that is the same as (cached_read_bytes * 100) / app_bytes_read if you'd rather see that.

new diff block below (if it all checks out, i'll send the whole patch, unless you'd rather just see that.)
