Subject: [PATCH v1 hot_track 00/18] vfs: hot data tracking

From: Zhi Yong Wu <wuzhy@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

HI, guys,

  Any comments or ideas are appreciated, thanks.

NOTE:

  The patchset can be obtained via my kernel dev git on github:
git@...hub.com:wuzhy/kernel.git hot_tracking
  If you're interested, you can also review them via
https://github.com/wuzhy/kernel/commits/hot_tracking

  For more info, please check hot_tracking.txt in Documentation

TODO List:

 1.) Need to do scalability or performance tests. - Required
 2.) Need one simpler but efficient temp calculation function
 3.) How to save the file temperature among the umount to be able to
     preserve the file tempreture after reboot - Optional

Changelog:

 - Embed struct hot_type in struct file_system_type [Darrick J. Wong]
 - Cleanup Some issues [David Sterba]
 - Use a static hot debugfs root [Greg KH]
 - Rewritten debugfs support based on seq_file operation. [Dave Chinner]
 - Refactored workqueue support. [Dave Chinner]
 - Turn some Micro into be tunable   [Zhiyong, Zheng Liu]
       TIME_TO_KICK, and HEAT_UPDATE_DELAY
 - Introduce hot func registering framework [Zhiyong]
 - Remove global variable for hot tracking [Zhiyong]
 - Add xfs hot tracking support [Dave Chinner]
 - Add ext4 hot tracking support [Zheng Liu]
 - Cleanedup a lot of other issues [Dave Chinner]
 - Converted to Radix trees, not RB-tree [Zhiyong, Dave Chinner]
 - Added memory shrinker [Dave Chinner]
 - Converted to one workqueue to update map info periodically [Dave Chinner]
 - Cleanedup a lot of other issues [Dave Chinner]
 - Reduce new files and put all in fs/hot_tracking.[ch] [Dave Chinner]
 - Add btrfs hot tracking support [Zhiyong]
 - The first three patches can probably just be flattened into one.
