Linux kernel source tree
After we copied data to page cache in buffered I/O, we
1. Insert a EXTENT_UPTODATE state into inode's io_tree, by
endio_readpage_release_extent(), set_extent_delalloc() or
set_extent_defrag().
2. Set page uptodate before we unlock the page.
But the only place we check io_tree's EXTENT_UPTODATE state is in
btrfs_do_readpage(). We know we enter btrfs_do_readpage() only when we
have a non-uptodate page, so it is unnecessary to set EXTENT_UPTODATE.
For example, when performing a buffered random read:
fio --rw=randread --ioengine=libaio --direct=0 --numjobs=4 \
--filesize=32G --size=4G --bs=4k --name=job \
--filename=/mnt/file --name=job
Then check how many extent_state in io_tree:
cat /proc/slabinfo | grep btrfs_extent_state | awk '{print $2}'
w/o this patch, we got 640567 btrfs_extent_state.
w/ this patch, we got 204 btrfs_extent_state.
Maintaining such a big tree brings overhead since every I/O needs to insert
EXTENT_LOCKED, insert EXTENT_UPTODATE, then remove EXTENT_LOCKED. And in
every insert or remove, we need to lock io_tree, do tree search, alloc or
dealloc extent states. By removing unnecessary EXTENT_UPTODATE, we keep
io_tree in a minimal size and reduce overhead when performing buffered I/O.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
