279 * |------------------- size -------------------->|
280 * |==================#===========================|
281 * ^start ^page marked with PG_readahead
282 *
283 * To overlap application thinking time and disk I/O time, we do
284 * `readahead pipelining': Do not wait until the application consumed all
285 * readahead pages and stalled on the missing page at readahead_index;
286 * Instead, submit an asynchronous readahead I/O as soon as there are
287 * only async_size pages left in the readahead window. Normally async_size
288 * will be equal to size, for maximum pipelining.
289 *
290 * In interleaved sequential reads, concurrent streams on the same fd can
291 * be invalidating each other's readahead state. So we flag the new readahead
292 * page at (start+size-async_size) with PG_readahead, and use it as readahead
293 * indicator. The flag won't be set on already cached pages, to avoid the
294 * readahead-for-nothing fuss, saving pointless page cache lookups.
295 *
296 * prev_pos tracks the last visited byte in the _previous_ read request.
297 * It should be maintained by the caller, and will be used for detecting
298 * small random reads. Note that the readahead algorithm checks loosely
299 * for sequential patterns. Hence interleaved reads might be served as
300 * sequential ones.
301 *
302 * There is a special-case: if the first page which the application tries to
303 * read happens to be the first page of the file, it is assumed that a linear
304 * read is about to happen and the window is immediately set to the initial size
305 * based on I/O request size and the max_readahead.
306 *
307 * The code ramps up the readahead size aggressively at first, but slow down as
308 * it approaches max_readhead.
