Subject: [PATCH 4/4] testing: add dontcache-bench local filesystem benchmark suite
Date: Wed, 01 Apr 2026 15:11:01 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260401-dontcache-v1-4-1f5746fab47a@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260401-dontcache-v1-0-1f5746fab47a@kernel.org>

Add a benchmark suite for testing IOCB_DONTCACHE on local filesystems
via fio's io_uring engine with the RWF_DONTCACHE flag.

The suite mirrors the nfsd-io-bench test matrix but uses io_uring with
the "uncached" fio option instead of NFSD debugfs mode switching:
 - uncached=0: standard buffered I/O
 - uncached=1: RWF_DONTCACHE
 - Mode 2 uses O_DIRECT via fio's --direct=1

Includes fio job files, run-benchmarks.sh, and parse-results.sh.
