|
|
<para>This VFS module is part of the
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>samba</refentrytitle>
|
|
<manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> suite.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <command>vfs_cacheprime</command> VFS module reads chunks
|
|
of file data near the range requested by clients in order to
|
|
make sure the data is present in the kernel file data cache at
|
|
the time when it is actually requested by clients. </para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The size of the disk read operations performed
|
|
by <command>vfs_cacheprime</command> is determined by the
|
|
cacheprime:rsize option. All disk read operations are aligned
|
|
on boundaries that are a multiple of this size. Each range of
|
|
the file data is primed at most once during the time the client
|
|
has the file open. </para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This module is stackable.</para>

|
<para>For a hypothetical disk array, it is necessary to ensure
|
|
that all read operations are of size 1 megabyte (1048576 bytes),
|
|
and aligned on 1 megabyte boundaries:

<title>CAVEATS</title>
|
|
<para><command>cacheprime</command> is not a a substitute for
|
|
a general-purpose readahead mechanism. It is intended for use
|
|
only in very specific environments where disk operations must
|
|
be aligned and sized to known values (as much as that is possible).

|
|
<para>The original Samba software and related utilities
|
|
were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
|
|
by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
|
|
to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</para>
