[RFC PATCH 4/5] mm: Add hit/miss accounting for Page Cache

From: Liu Yuan
Date: Wed Mar 02 2011 - 03:38:39 EST


From: Liu Yuan <tailai.ly@xxxxxxxxxx>

Hit/Miss accountings are request-centric: that is, single request
would either cause one hit or one miss to be accounted for the very
first time that kernel query the page cache. In some rare error
conditions, kernel would re-query the page cache, but we donnot
account for it and ignore it for simplicity.
