For now, this is just a split between scan and flush that
were both done during lazy scan previously.
Lazy scan shouldn't perform any write operation, but only
queue a write behind operation.
Our implementation is far from the original, as it seems
our lazy scan should queue a write behind operation per
shared cache map. Right now, we only perform global
operation.
In the lazy writer run, first post items that are queued for this.
Only then, start executing deferred writes if any.
If there were any, reschedule immediately a lazy writer run, to keep
Cc warm and to make it unqueue write faster in case of high IOs situation.
To make second lazy writer run happen faster, we keep our state active to
use short delay (1s) instead of standard idle (3s).
This halfplements CcScheduleReadAhead() which is responsible for finding the next reads
to perform given last read and previous reads. I made it very basic for now, at least
to test the whole process.
This also introduces the CcExpressWorkQueue in the lazy writer which is responsible
for dealing with read ahead items and which is dealt with before the regular queue.
In CcCopyData(), if read was fine, schedule read ahead so that it can happen in background
without the FSD to notice it! Also, update the read history so that scheduling as a
bit of data.
Implement (à la "old Cc" ;-)) CcPerformReadAhead() which is responsible for performing
the read. It's only to be called by the worker thread.
Side note on the modifications done in CcRosReleaseFileCache(). Private cache map
is tied to a handle. If it goes away, private cache map gets deleted. Read ahead
can run after the handle was closed (and thus, private cache map deleted), so
it is mandatory to always lock the master lock before accessing the structure in
read ahead or before deleting it in CcRosReleaseFileCache(). Otherwise, you'll
just break everything. You've been warned!
This commit also partly reverts f8b5d27.
CORE-14312
We get rid of the old iLazyWriterNotify event in favor of work items
that contain an event that lazy writer will set once its done.
To implement this, we rely on the newly introduced CcPostTickWorkQueue work queue
that will contain work items that are to be queued once lazy writer is done.
Move the CcWaitForCurrentLazyWriterActivity() implementation to the
lazy writer file, and reimplemented it using the new support mechanisms
Instead move to a threading model like the Windows one.
We'll queue several work items to be executed in a system thread (Cc worker)
when there are VACB that have been marked as dirty. Furthermore, some delay
will be observed before action to avoid killing the system with IOs.
This new threading model opens way for read ahead and write behind implementation.
Also, moved the initialization of the lazy writer to CcInitializeCacheManager()
it has nothing to do with views and shouldn't be initialized there.
Also, moved the lazy writer implementation to its own file.
Modified CcDeferWrite() and CcRosMarkDirtyVacb() to take into account the new threading model.
Introduced new functions:
- CcPostWorkQueue(): post an item to be handled by Cc worker and spawn a worker if required
- CcScanDpc(): called after some time (not to have lazy writer always running) to queue a lazy scan
- CcLazyWriteScan(): the lazy writer we used to have
- CcScheduleLazyWriteScan(): function to call when you want to start a lazy writer run. It will make a DPC after some time and queue execution
- CcWorkerThread(): the worker thread that will handle lazy write, read ahead, and so on
