f2fs: readahead node blocks in F2FS_GET_BLOCK_PRECACHE mode
In f2fs_precache_extents(), For large files, It requires reading many node blocks. Instead of reading each node block with synchronous I/O, this patch applies readahead so that node blocks can be fetched in advance. It reduces the overhead of repeated sync reads and improves efficiency when precaching extents of large files. I created a file with the same largest extent and executed the test. For this experiment, I set the file's largest extent with an offset of 0 and a size of 1GB. I configured the remaining area with 100MB extents. 5GB test file: dd if=/dev/urandom of=test1 bs=1m count=5120 cp test1 test2 fsync test1 dd if=test1 of=test2 bs=1m skip=1024 seek=1024 count=100 conv=notrunc dd if=test1 of=test2 bs=1m skip=1224 seek=1224 count=100 conv=notrunc ... dd if=test1 of=test2 bs=1m skip=5024 seek=5024 count=100 conv=notrunc reboot I also created 10GB and 20GB files with large extents using the same method. ioctl(F2FS_IOC_PRECACHE_EXTENTS) test results are as follows: +-----------+---------+---------+-----------+ | File size | Before | After | Reduction | +-----------+---------+---------+-----------+ | 5GB | 101.8ms | 37.0ms | 72.1% | | 10GB | 222.9ms | 56.0ms | 74.9% | | 20GB | 446.2ms | 116.4ms | 73.9% | +-----------+---------+---------+-----------+ Tested on a 256GB mobile device with an SM8750 chipset.
