f2fs: introduce sysfs readdir_ra to readahead inode block in readdir
This patch introduces a sysfs interface readdir_ra to enable/disable readaheading inode block in f2fs_readdir. When readdir_ra is enabled, it improves the performance of "readdir + stat". For 300,000 files: time find /data/test > /dev/null disable readdir_ra: 1m25.69s real 0m01.94s user 0m50.80s system enable readdir_ra: 0m18.55s real 0m00.44s user 0m15.39s system Signed-off-by: Sheng Yong <shengyong1@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Chao Yu <yuchao0@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
