#include <fcntl.h> ssize_t readahead(int fd, off64_t *offset, size_t count); |
描述
readahead() populates the page cache with data from a file so that subsequent reads from that file will not block on disk I/O. The fd argument is a file descriptor identifying the file which is to be read. The offset argument specifies the starting point from which data is to be read and count specifies the number of bytes to be read. I/O is performed in whole pages, so that offset is effectively rounded down to a page boundary and bytes are read up to the next page boundary greater than or equal to (offset+count).readahead() does not read beyond the end of the file. readahead() blocks until the specified data has been read. The current file offset of the open file referred to by fd is left unchanged.返回值
On success, readahead() returns 0; on failure, -1 is returned, with errno set to indicate the cause of the error.错误

readahead() 系统调用是Linux特有的，并且应该避免在便携式应用中的使用。注意
The readahead() system call appeared in Linux 2.4.13.另请参阅
