Subject: [patch 0/2] adaptive readahead fixes

Andrew,

Here are two bug fix patches against -mm, with their recommended placement:


 readahead-events-accounting.patch
 readahead-rescue_pages.patch
 readahead-sysctl-parameters.patch
+readahead-sysctl-parameters-fix.patch
 readahead-min-max-sizes.patch
 readahead-state-based-method-aging-accounting.patch
 readahead-state-based-method-routines.patch

 readahead-loop-case.patch
 readahead-nfsd-case.patch
 readahead-nfsd-case-fix.patch
+readahead-nfsd-case-fix-uninitialized-ra_min-ra_max.patch
 readahead-turn-on-by-default.patch
 readahead-remove-size-limit-on-read_ahead_kb.patch
 readahead-remove-size-limit-of-max_sectors_kb-on-read_ahead_kb.patch


readahead-sysctl-parameters-fix.patch
=====================================

Two trivial fixes.
// Was three, but you were so swift on CTL_UNNUMBERED :-)


readahead-nfsd-case-fix-uninitialized-ra_min-ra_max.patch
=========================================================

The NFS benchmark is ran again with the bug fixed.
The summary is included in the patch as changelog.
The raw numbers are here:

PS.
About the partial sendfile problem mentioned in the previous benchmark mail:
The stock readahead is not handling it correctly, but not so destructive.
So I choose not to submit the patch.
