Hi,
I open the file, then call mmap() on the whole file and get pointer,
then I work with this pointer. I expect that page should be only once
touched to get it into the memory (disk cache?), but this doesn't work!
I wrote the test (attached) and ran it for the 1G file generated from
/dev/random, the result is the following:
Prepare file:
# swapoff -a
# newfs /dev/ada0b
# mount /dev/ada0b /mnt
# dd if=/dev/random of=/mnt/random-1024 bs=1m count=1024
Purge cache:
# umount /mnt
# mount /dev/ada0b /mnt
Run test:
$ ./mmap /mnt/random-1024 30

If I ran this:
$ cat /mnt/random-1024 > /dev/null
before test, when result is the following:
$ ./mmap /mnt/random-1024 5
mmap: 1 pass took: 0.337657 (none: 0; res: 262144; super:
0; other: 0)
mmap: 2 pass took: 0.186137 (none: 0; res: 262144; super:
0; other: 0)
mmap: 3 pass took: 0.186132 (none: 0; res: 262144; super:
0; other: 0)
mmap: 4 pass took: 0.186535 (none: 0; res: 262144; super:
0; other: 0)
mmap: 5 pass took: 0.190353 (none: 0; res: 262144; super:
0; other: 0)
This is what I expect. But why this doesn't work without reading file
manually?
I've also never seen super pages, how to make them work?
I've been playing with madvise and posix_fadvise but no luck. BTW,
posix_fadvise(POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED) does nothing as the commentary says,
shouldn't this be documented in the manual page?
All tests were run under 9.0-STABLE (r233744).
