; Read/write functions try to do large operations,
; it is significantly faster than several small operations.
; This requires large buffers.
; We can't use input/output buffers directly - they can be controlled
; by user-mode application, so they can be modified between the operation
; and copying to/from cache, giving invalid data in cache.
; It is unclear how to use cache directly, currently cache items are
; allocated/freed sector-wise, so items for sequential sectors can be
; scattered over all the cache.
; So read/write functions allocate a temporary buffer which is
; 1) not greater than half of free memory and
; 2) not greater than the following constant.
CACHE_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE = 4 shl 20
; Legacy interface for filesystems fs_{read,write}32_{sys,app}
; gives only one sector for FS. However, per-sector reading is inefficient,
; so internally fs_read32_{sys,app} reads to the cache several sequential
; sectors, hoping that they will be useful.
; Total number of sectors is given by the following constant.
CACHE_LEGACY_READ_SIZE = 16
; This structure describes one item in the cache.
