[PATCH v2 0/5] nfsd: add a reply_cache_stats file to nfsd for tracking DRC performance

[Jeff Layton]

This patchset adds some stats tracking to the DRC to hopefully allow
us to make better-informed decisions in the future on performance
improvements.

Some of these I've already posted, but reposting them now as a set
to allow Bruce to more easily merge them. I think these would be good
for 3.9, but they're obviously not critical.

Jeff Layton (5):
  nfsd: break out comparator into separate function
  nfsd: track memory utilization in the DRC
  nfsd: add new reply_cache_stats file in nfsdfs
  nfsd: keep track of the max and average time to search the cache
  nfsd: keep stats on worst hash balancing seen so far

[PATCH v2 1/5] nfsd: break out comparator into separate function

[Jeff Layton]

Break out the function that compares the rqstp and checksum against a
reply cache entry. While we're at it, track the efficacy of the checksum
over the NFS data by tracking the cases where we would have incorrectly
matched a DRC entry if we had not tracked it or the length.

Since we're moderately concerned about the potential increase in hash
chain lengths, keep a running average of the time and the max time to
search.

[PATCH v2 5/5] nfsd: keep stats on worst hash balancing seen so far

[Jeff Layton]

The typical case with the DRC is a cache miss, so if we keep track of
the max number of entries that we've ever walked over in a search, then
we should have a reasonable estimate of the longest hash chain that
we've ever seen.

With that, we'll also keep track of the total size of the cache when we
see the longest chain. In the case of a tie, we prefer to track the
smallest total cache size in order to properly gauge the worst-case
ratio of max vs. avg chain length.
