<title>Notes</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>This interface is provided by the reference
|
|
implementation of APIs for controlling boot-time
|
|
read-ahead and distributed with the systemd
|
|
package. The algorithms it implements are simple, and
|
|
can easily be reimplemented in daemons if it is
|
|
important to support this interface without using the
|
|
reference implementation. See the respective function
|
|
man pages for details.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>In addition, for details about the algorithms
|
|
check the liberally licensed reference implementation
|
|
sources:
|
|
<ulink url="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/plain/src/readahead/sd-readahead.c"/>
|
|
resp. <ulink url="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/plain/src/systemd/sd-readahead.h"/></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>These APIs are implemented in the reference
|
|
implementation's drop-in
|
|
<filename>sd-readahead.c</filename> and
|
|
<filename>sd-readahead.h</filename> files. It is
|
|
recommended that applications consuming these APIs copy
|
|
the implementation into their source tree, either
|
|
verbatim or in excerpts. These interfaces are
|
|
currently not available in a dynamic library.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The functions provided by this interface become
|
|
NOPs when -DDISABLE_SYSTEMD is set during
|
|
compilation. In addition, if
|
|
<filename>sd-readhead.c</filename> is compiled on
|
|
non-Linux systems it becomes NOPs.</para>
