New Revision: 230782
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/230782

Log:
  Refine the implementation of POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE for the read(2) case such
  that instead of using direct I/O it allows read-ahead similar to
  POSIX_FADV_NORMAL, but invokes VOP_ADVISE(POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) after the
  read(2) has completed to purge just-read data.  The write(2) path continues
  to use direct I/O for POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE for now.  Note that NOREUSE works
  optimally if an application reads and writes full fs blocks.
