This patchset is a first stab at adding persistent, local caching facility for
|
|
CIFS using the FS-Cache interface.
|
|
|
|
The index hierarchy which is mainly used to locate a file object or discard
|
|
a certain subset of the files cached, currently has three levels:
|
|
- Server
|
|
- Share
|
|
- File
|
|
|
|
The server index object is keyed by hostname of the server. The superblock
|
|
index object is keyed by the sharename and the inode object is keyed by the
|
|
UniqueId. The cache coherency is ensured by checking the 'LastWriteTime' and
|
|
size of file.
|
|
|
|
To use this, apply this patchset in order, mount the share with rsize=4096 and
|
|
try copying a huge file (say few hundred MBs) from mount point to local
|
|
filesystem. During the first time, the cache will be initialized. When you copy
|
|
the second time, it should read from the local cache.
|
|
|
|
To reduce the impact of page cache and see the local caching in action
|
|
readily, try doing a sync and drop the caches by doing:
|
|
sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
|
|
|
|
Known issues
|
|
-------------
|
|
- the cache coherency check may not be reliable always as some
|
|
CIFS servers are known not to update mtime until the filehandle is
|
|
closed.
|
|
- not all the Servers under all circumstances provide a unique
|
|
'UniqueId'.
|
|
|
|
Todo's
|
|
-------
|
|
- improvements to avoid potential key collisions
|
|
- address the above known issues
|
|
|
|
This set is lightly tested and all the bugs seen during my testing have been
|
|
fixed. However, this can be considered as an RFC for now.
|
|
|
|
Any Comments or Suggestions are welcome.
