Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/1] FUSE: allow drivers to increase readahead.
Date: Wed,  2 Mar 2022 10:18:15 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220302171816.1170782-1-kvigor@gmail.com> (raw)

Summary:

Allow FUSE drivers to increase readahead setting.

Details:

FUSE drivers can set a max_readahead value in the fuse_init_out value.

However, this value can currently only decrease the readahead setting
from the default, which is set to VM_READAHEAD_PAGES in bdi_alloc().

Add a flag which causes the kernel driver to accept whatever
max_readahead value the user provides in fuse_init_out. Note that
read_ahead_kb_store() similarly allows users to set arbitrary ra_pages
values.
