xfs: flag as supporting FOP_DONTCACHE
Read side was already fully supported, and with the write side appropriately punted to the worker queue, all that's needed now is setting FOP_DONTCACHE in the file_operations structure to enable full support for read and write uncached IO. This provides similar benefits to using RWF_DONTCACHE with reads. Testing buffered writes on 32 files: writing bs 65536, uncached 0 1s: 196035MB/sec 2s: 132308MB/sec 3s: 132438MB/sec 4s: 116528MB/sec 5s: 103898MB/sec 6s: 108893MB/sec 7s: 99678MB/sec 8s: 106545MB/sec 9s: 106826MB/sec 10s: 101544MB/sec 11s: 111044MB/sec 12s: 124257MB/sec 13s: 116031MB/sec 14s: 114540MB/sec 15s: 115011MB/sec 16s: 115260MB/sec 17s: 116068MB/sec 18s: 116096MB/sec where it's quite obvious where the page cache filled, and performance dropped from to about half of where it started, settling in at around 115GB/sec. Meanwhile, 32 kswapds were running full steam trying to reclaim pages. Running the same test with uncached buffered writes: writing bs 65536, uncached 1 1s: 198974MB/sec 2s: 189618MB/sec 3s: 193601MB/sec 4s: 188582MB/sec 5s: 193487MB/sec 6s: 188341MB/sec 7s: 194325MB/sec 8s: 188114MB/sec 9s: 192740MB/sec 10s: 189206MB/sec 11s: 193442MB/sec 12s: 189659MB/sec 13s: 191732MB/sec 14s: 190701MB/sec 15s: 191789MB/sec 16s: 191259MB/sec 17s: 190613MB/sec 18s: 191951MB/sec and the behavior is fully predictable, performing the same throughout even after the page cache would otherwise have fully filled with dirty data. It's also about 65% faster, and using half the CPU of the system compared to the normal buffered write.
