| 3 | tristate "General filesystem local caching manager" | |
| 06b3db1b DH |
4 | help |
| 5 | This option enables a generic filesystem caching manager that can be | |
| 6 | used by various network and other filesystems to cache data locally. | |
| 7 | Different sorts of caches can be plugged in, depending on the | |
| 8 | resources available. | |

| 10 | See Documentation/filesystems/caching/fscache.txt for more information. | |

12 | config FSCACHE_STATS |
| 13 | bool "Gather statistical information on local caching" | |
| 14 | depends on FSCACHE && PROC_FS | |
| 15 | help | |
| 16 | This option causes statistical information to be gathered on local | |
| 17 | caching and exported through file: | |
| 18 | ||
| 19 | /proc/fs/fscache/stats | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | The gathering of statistics adds a certain amount of overhead to | |
| 22 | execution as there are a quite a few stats gathered, and on a | |
| 23 | multi-CPU system these may be on cachelines that keep bouncing | |
| 24 | between CPUs. On the other hand, the stats are very useful for | |
| 25 | debugging purposes. Saying 'Y' here is recommended. | |

| 31 | depends on FSCACHE && PROC_FS | |
| 32 | help | |
| 33 | This option causes latency information to be gathered on local | |
| 34 | caching and exported through file: | |
| 35 | ||
| 36 | /proc/fs/fscache/histogram | |
| 37 | ||
| 38 | The generation of this histogram adds a certain amount of overhead to | |
| 39 | execution as there are a number of points at which data is gathered, | |
| 40 | and on a multi-CPU system these may be on cachelines that keep | |
| 41 | bouncing between CPUs. On the other hand, the histogram may be | |
| 42 | useful for debugging purposes. Saying 'N' here is recommended. | |

| 49 | help | |
| 50 | This permits debugging to be dynamically enabled in the local caching | |
| 51 | management module. If this is set, the debugging output may be | |
| 52 | enabled by setting bits in /sys/modules/fscache/parameter/debug. | |

| 61 | retrieved through /proc/fs/fscache/objects for debugging purposes |
