Subject: [PATCH V6 00/23] ext4: Add inline data support.
Hi list,
this is another try for the inline data support for ext4. The main
change in this version is that now we only store the 4 bytes for
parent's inode number and both "." and ".." are removed which
is suggested by Ted.
I have runned all the xfstests cases and fixes the bugs it found.
Hope it is stable now for the inclusion.
So in genernal, I have runned several test cases and try to prove
that it works.
A fsstats shows the directory information for my home.
(The test tools can be found here. http://www.pdsi-scidac.org/fsstats/.
Thanks goes to Andreas Dilger).
directory size (entries): Range of entries, count of directories in range, number of dirs in range as a % of total num of dirs, number of dirs in this range or smaller as a % total number of dirs, total entries in range, number of entries in range as a % of total number of entries, number of entries in this range or smaller as a % of total number of entries.

So with inode size equals 256, more than 50% directory can be inlined.
I have also runned several other test cases to prove the peroformance gain,
And I'd like to describe the result here. For more test details, please see below.
For a dir iteration test, if most of the dirs are inlined, we can see a 10 fold
speed up(240ms vs. 2250ms) in dir iteration(try to find a not-exist file). Yes,
that is expected. ;)
With a normal kernel tar and directory iteration test, we can find a 1.5% space
saving(with cluster size=4096, I would imagine a better result with bigalloc enabled).
As for the directory iteration, we can see a 22.4% speedup.
I ran postmark for 2 senarios, one with file size between 11 and 500 which is good
for inline data test, and another with file size between 100 and 50000. We can see
a 32.8%(49s vs. 73s) improvement for the first one, and 3.6%(805s vs. 835s) for the
latter.
The final test case is the fs_mark. I ran the different sync modes, and we can see
more than 100% increase if we does the sync and this is really a huge win.
1. normal test case of taring a kernel source and find a file:
time tar zxvf linux-3.4.tar.gz -C $MNT_DIR
df -hm|grep $MNT_DIR
umount $MNT_DIR
mount -t ext4 $DEVICE $MNT_DIR
time find $MNT_DIR -name a
inline_data result
in find real 570ms
in find sys 80ms
in find user 30ms
