If functionality like this is available, we would add support in
libgfapi.so as well. NFS-Ganesha is prepared for consuming this
(fsal_obj_ops->io_advise), so applications running on top of NFS will
benefit. I failed to see if the standard Samba/vfs can use it.
A quick check in QEMU does not suggest it is used by the block drivers.
I don't think Linux/FUSE supports fadvise though. So this is an
oppertunity for a Gluster developer to get their...

How commonly applications make use of fadvise?
Hi all,
In a conversation between me, Milind and Csaba, Milind pointed out fadvise(2) [1] and its potential benefits to Glusterfs' caching translators like read-ahead etc. After discussing about it, we agreed that our performance translators can leverage the hints to provide better performance. Now the question is how commonly applications actually provide hints? Is it something that is used
