[RFC v2 01/10] vfs: introduce private rb structures

From: zwu . kernel
Date: Sun Sep 23 2012 - 09:01:38 EST


From: Zhi Yong Wu <wuzhy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

One root structure hot_info is defined, is hooked
up in super_block, and will be used to hold rb trees
root, hash list root and some other information, etc.
Adds hot_inode_tree struct to keep track of
frequently accessed files, and be keyed by {inode, offset}.
Trees contain hot_inode_items representing those files
and ranges.
Having these trees means that vfs can quickly determine the
temperature of some data by doing some calculations on the
hot_freq_data struct that hangs off of the tree item.
Define two items hot_inode_item and hot_range_item,
one of them represents one tracked file
to keep track of its access frequency and the tree of
ranges in this file, while the latter represents
a file range of one inode.
Each of the two structures contains a hot_freq_data
struct with its frequency of access metrics (number of
{reads, writes}, last {read,write} time, frequency of
{reads,writes}).
Also, each hot_inode_item contains one hot_range_tree
struct which is keyed by {inode, offset, length}
and used to keep track of all the ranges in this file.
