Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] SUNRPC: Cache pages that were replaced during a read splice
Date: Mon, 22 Feb 2021 10:23:27 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <161400740732.195066.3792261943053910900.stgit@klimt.1015granger.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <161400722731.195066.9584156841718557193.stgit@klimt.1015granger.net>
To avoid extra trips to the page allocator, don't free unused pages
in nfsd_splice_actor(), but instead place them in a local cache.
That cache is then used first when refilling rq_pages.
On workloads that perform large NFS READs on splice-capable file
systems, this saves a considerable amount of work.
