    f2fs: support fast lookup in extent cache · 62c8af65
    Chao Yu 提交于
    This patch adds a fast lookup path for rb-tree extent cache.
    
    In this patch we add a recently accessed extent node pointer 'cached_en' in
    extent tree. In lookup path of extent cache, we will firstly lookup the last
    accessed extent node which cached_en points, if we do not hit in this node,
    we will try to lookup extent node in rb-tree.
    
    By this way we can avoid unnecessary slow lookup in rb-tree sometimes.
    
    Note that, side-effect of this patch is that we will increase memory cost,
    because we will store a pointer variable in each struct extent tree
    additionally.
