350  *     ^start             ^page marked with PG_readahead
351  *
352  * To overlap application thinking time and disk I/O time, we do
353  * `readahead pipelining': Do not wait until the application consumed all
354  * readahead pages and stalled on the missing page at readahead_index;
355  * Instead, submit an asynchronous readahead I/O as soon as there are
356  * only async_size pages left in the readahead window. Normally async_size
357  * will be equal to size, for maximum pipelining.
358  *
359  * In interleaved sequential reads, concurrent streams on the same fd can
360  * be invalidating each other's readahead state. So we flag the new readahead
361  * page at (start+size-async_size) with PG_readahead, and use it as readahead
362  * indicator. The flag won't be set on already cached pages, to avoid the
363  * readahead-for-nothing fuss, saving pointless page cache lookups.
364  *
365  * prev_pos tracks the last visited byte in the _previous_ read request.
366  * It should be maintained by the caller, and will be used for detecting
367  * small random reads. Note that the readahead algorithm checks loosely
368  * for sequential patterns. Hence interleaved reads might be served as
369  * sequential ones.
370  *
371  * There is a special-case: if the first page which the application tries to
372  * read happens to be the first page of the file, it is assumed that a linear
373  * read is about to happen and the window is immediately set to the initial size
374  * based on I/O request size and the max_readahead.
375  *

377  * it approaches max_readhead.
