This is intended to be used unconditionally by the filesystem (whether or not caching is enabled) and provides a common framework for doing caching, transparent huge pages and, in the future, possibly fscrypt and read bandwidth maximisation. It also allows the netfs and the cache to align, expand and slice up a read request from the VM in various ways; the netfs need only provide a function to read a stretch of data to the pagecache and the helper takes care of the rest. (2) Add an alternative fscache/cachfiles I/O API that uses the kiocb facility to do async DIO to transfer data to/from the netfs's pages, rather than using readpage with wait queue snooping on one side and vfs_write() on the other. It also uses less memory, since it doesn't do buffered I/O on the backing file. Note that this uses SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA to locate the data available to be read from the cache. Whilst this is an improvement from the bmap interface, it still has a problem with regard to a modern extent-based filesystem inserting or removing bridging blocks of zeros. Fixing that requires a much greater overhaul. This is a step towards overhauling the fscache API. The change is opt-in on the part of the network filesystem. A netfs should not try to mix the old and the new API because of conflicting ways of handling pages and the PG_fscache page flag and because it would be mixing DIO with buffered I/O. Further, the helper library can't be used with the old API. This does not change any of the fscache cookie handling APIs or the way invalidation is done. In the near term, I intend to deprecate and remove the old I/O API (fscache_allocate_page{,s}(), fscache_read_or_alloc_page{,s}(), fscache_write_page() and fscache_uncache_page()) and eventually replace most of fscache/cachefiles with something simpler and easier to follow. The patchset contains four parts: (1) Some helper patches, including provision of an ITER_XARRAY iov iterator and a function to do readahead expansion. (2) Patches to add the netfs helper library. (3) A patch to add the fscache/cachefiles kiocb API (4) Patches to add support in AFS for this. With this, AFS without a cache passes all expected xfstests; with a cache, there's an extra failure, but that's also there before these patches. Fixing that probably requires a greater overhaul.
