Subject: Addressing logically the buffer cache
Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2000 20:56:45 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3A1198FD.FB50B05E@ditec.um.es> (raw)
Hi!.
Is there any patch or project to address logically the buffer cache?.
Now, you use three parameters to find a buffer in cache: device, block
number, and block size. But, what about if I want to find a buffer using
a super block, an inode number, and a block number within the file
specified by the inode number.
This mechanism would be very useful for a log-structured file system,
for example.
Thanks in advance
