6 * High-performance uncached I/O for the Linux NFS client
8 * There are important applications whose performance or correctness
9 * depends on uncached access to file data. Database clusters
10 * (multiple copies of the same instance running on separate hosts)
11 * implement their own cache coherency protocol that subsumes file
12 * system cache protocols. Applications that process datasets
13 * considerably larger than the client's memory do not always benefit
14 * from a local cache. A streaming video server, for instance, has no
15 * need to cache the contents of a file.
17 * When an application requests uncached I/O, all read and write requests
18 * are made directly to the server; data stored or fetched via these
19 * requests is not cached in the Linux page cache. The client does not
20 * correct unaligned requests from applications. All requested bytes are
21 * held on permanent storage before a direct write system call returns to
24 * Solaris implements an uncached I/O facility called directio() that
25 * is used for backups and sequential I/O to very large files. Solaris
26 * also supports uncaching whole NFS partitions with "-o forcedirectio,"
27 * an undocumented mount option.
29 * Designed by Jeff Kimmel, Chuck Lever, and Trond Myklebust, with
30 * help from Andrew Morton.

786 * @iov: vector of user buffers from which to write data
787 * @nr_segs: size of iov vector
788 * @pos: byte offset in file where writing starts
790 * We use this function for direct writes instead of calling
791 * generic_file_aio_write() in order to avoid taking the inode
792 * semaphore and updating the i_size. The NFS server will set
793 * the new i_size and this client must read the updated size
794 * back into its cache. We let the server do generic write
795 * parameter checking and report problems.
797 * We also avoid an unnecessary invocation of generic_osync_inode(),
798 * as it is fairly meaningless to sync the metadata of an NFS file.
800 * We eliminate local atime updates, see direct read above.
802 * We avoid unnecessary page cache invalidations for normal cached
803 * readers of this file.
805 * Note that O_APPEND is not supported for NFS direct writes, as there
806 * is no atomic O_APPEND write facility in the NFS protocol.
