+ * Readahead design.
+ *
+ * The fields in struct file_ra_state represent the most-recently-executed
+ * readahead attempt:
+ *
+ * start:	Page index at which we started the readahead
+ * size:	Number of pages in that read
+ *              Together, these form the "current window".
+ *              Together, start and size represent the `readahead window'.
+ * prev_page:   The page which the readahead algorithm most-recently inspected.
+ *              It is mainly used to detect sequential file reading.
+ *              If page_cache_readahead sees that it is again being called for
+ *              a page which it just looked at, it can return immediately without
+ *              making any state changes.
+ * ahead_start,
+ * ahead_size:  Together, these form the "ahead window".
+ * ra_pages:	The externally controlled max readahead for this fd.
+ *
+ * When readahead is in the off state (size == 0), readahead is disabled.
+ * In this state, prev_page is used to detect the resumption of sequential I/O.
+ *
+ * The readahead code manages two windows - the "current" and the "ahead"
+ * windows.  The intent is that while the application is walking the pages
+ * in the current window, I/O is underway on the ahead window.  When the
+ * current window is fully traversed, it is replaced by the ahead window
+ * and the ahead window is invalidated.  When this copying happens, the
+ * new current window's pages are probably still locked.  So
+ * we submit a new batch of I/O immediately, creating a new ahead window.
+ *
+ * So:
+ *
+ *   ----|----------------|----------------|-----
+ *       ^start           ^start+size
+ *                        ^ahead_start     ^ahead_start+ahead_size
+ *
+ *         ^ When this page is read, we submit I/O for the
+ *           ahead window.
+ *
+ * A `readahead hit' occurs when a read request is made against a page which is
+ * the next sequential page. Ahead window calculations are done only when it
+ * is time to submit a new IO.  The code ramps up the size agressively at first,
+ * but slow down as it approaches max_readhead.
+ *
+ * Any seek/ramdom IO will result in readahead being turned off.  It will resume
+ * at the first sequential access.
+ *
+ * There is a special-case: if the first page which the application tries to
+ * read happens to be the first page of the file, it is assumed that a linear
+ * read is about to happen and the window is immediately set to the initial size
+ * based on I/O request size and the max_readahead.
+ *
+ * This function is to be called for every read request, rather than when
+ * it is time to perform readahead.  It is called only once for the entire I/O
+ * regardless of size unless readahead is unable to start enough I/O to satisfy
+ * the request (I/O request > max_readahead).
+ */
