[20181214]open file using O_DIRECT.txt

--//因为一个测试需要,需要写一个测试小例子,验证使用O_DIRECT打开文件每次都是从磁盘读取.
--//没想到浪费1个上午时间,C语言不是自己的擅长.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
//#define __USE_GNU 1
#include <fcntl.h>

int main(void)
{
    void *realbuff ;
    int handle;
    int bytes ;
    int pagesize;
    int nTemp ;

    pagesize = getpagesize();
    // printf("%d\n",pagesize);
    realbuff = valloc( 1024000 );
    nTemp = posix_memalign(&realbuff, pagesize, 1024000);

    if (0!=nTemp)
    {
        perror("posix_memalign error");
        return 1;
    }

    handle=open("test.bin",O_RDONLY|O_DIRECT);
    if(handle==-1)
    {
        printf("ErrorOpeningFile\n");
        exit(1);
    }
    while ( (bytes=read(handle,realbuff,1024000))>0 )
    {
        sleep(1);
        printf("Read:%d bytes read.\n",bytes);
    }
    return 0 ;
}

--//自己的问题在于不能使用malloc分配缓存.而应该使用valloc分配,不然在posix_memalign这步就报错,使用valloc才能对齐pagesize.
--//顺便说一下getpagesize()我的测试返回是4096.我使用gcc版本:

# man open

  O_DIRECT
      Try to minimize cache effects of the I/O to and from this file.  In general this will degrade performance,
      but it is useful in special situations, such as when applications do their own caching.  File I/O is done
      directly to/from  user  space  buffers.   The I/O is synchronous, i.e., at the completion of a read(2) or
      write(2), data is guaranteed to have been transferred.  Under Linux 2.4 transfer sizes, and the alignment
      of user buffer and file offset must all be multiples of the logical block size of the file system. Under
      Linux 2.6 alignment must fit the block size of the device.

--//也就是这样读取效率低下,每次都是从磁盘读取.除非applications do their own caching.
--//顺便说一下国内开发有许多相关讨论的帖子,查询open O_DIRECT就能找到.
