In addition to the standard NFS LOOKUP() routine for retrieving the
filehandle etc, NFSv3 adds a further refinement for speeding up 'find'
style programs. When reading the directory, the client can request the
alternative 'READDIRPLUS' call, in which each directory entry info
includes filehandle, + attributes.
The following patch allows the Linux NFSv3 client to make use of this
information. It ensures that for 'short' directories (defined as one
for which inode->i_size < NFS_LIMIT_READDIRPLUS) we call READDIRPLUS
rather than READDIR.
When the client tries to lookup a file from that directory, it then
first scans the cached directory info via the new function
nfs_cached_lookup() for the new filehandle, saving us from a LOOKUP
RPC call.
Since the directory pagecache gets cleared every time the directory is
seen to change, we are protected from picking up stale filehandles.
One question which does arise, however, is that of how to treat the
attributes. Since we don't know when the readdirplus call that filled
this particular pagecache entry was issued, we don't know how old the
attributes are. The most conservative estimate is to timestamp the
attributes as being no older than the last time we set the mtime
on the directory, and so this is what is done.
Cheers,
Trond
