mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.6-rc1 commit 038ba8cc1bffc51250add4a9b9249d4331576d8f category: bugfix bugzilla: https://bugzilla.openeuler.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26 CVE: NA
-----------------------------------------------
In year 2007 high performance SSD was still expensive, in order to save more space for real workload or meta data, the readahead I/Os for non-meta data was bypassed and not cached on SSD.
In now days, SSD price drops a lot and people can find larger size SSD with more comfortable price. It is unncessary to alway bypass normal readahead I/Os to save SSD space for now.
This patch adds options for readahead data cache policies via sysfs file /sys/block/bcache<N>/readahead_cache_policy, the options are, - "all": cache all readahead data I/Os. - "meta-only": only cache meta data, and bypass other regular I/Os.
If users want to make bcache continue to only cache readahead request for metadata and bypass regular data readahead, please set "meta-only" to this sysfs file. By default, bcache will back to cache all read- ahead requests now.
