NAMEvfs_preopen − Hide read latencies for applications reading numbered files

SYNOPSISvfs objects = preopen

DESCRIPTIONThis VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite​. This module assists applications that want to read numbered files in sequence with very strict latency requirements​. One area where this happens in video streaming applications that want to read one file per frame​. When you use this module, a number of helper processes is started that speculatively open files and read a number of bytes to prime the file system cache, so that later on when the real application's request comes along, no disk access is necessary​. This module is stackable​.

OPTIONSpreopen:names = /pattern/ preopen:names specifies the file name pattern which should trigger the preopen helpers to do their work​. We assume that the files are numbered incrementally​. So if your file names are numbered FRAME00000​.frm FRAME00001​.frm and so on you would list them as preopen:names=/FRAME*​.frm/ preopen:num_bytes = BYTES Specifies the number of bytes the helpers should speculatively read, defaults to 1​. preopen:helpers = NUM−PROCS Number of forked helper processes, defaults to 1​. preopen:queuelen = NUM−FILES Number of files that should be speculatively opened​. Defaults to the 10 subsequent files​.

VERSIONThis man page is correct for version 3​.3 of the Samba suite​.

AUTHORThe original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell​. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed​. The PREOPEN VFS module was created with contributions from Volker Lendecke and the developers at IBM​.
