[PATCHSET v24.0 0/1] xfs: cache xfile pages for better performance

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

 



Hi all,

Congratulations!  You have made it to the final patchset of the main
online fsck feature!  This last series improves the performance of
xfile-backed btrees by teaching the buffer cache to directly map pages
from the xfile.  It also speeds up xfarray operations substantially by
implementing a small page cache to avoid repeated kmap/kunmap calls.
Collectively, these can reduce the runtime of online repair functions by
twenty percent or so.

If you're going to start using this mess, you probably ought to just
pull from my git trees, which are linked below.

This is an extraordinary way to destroy everything.  Enjoy!
Comments and questions are, as always, welcome.
