[PATCH 1/2] use raw i/o and root device to use less memory

Hello Cliff,
Did you overlook my comment below ?
- http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2015-May/013823.html
I understood that you suggested direct I/O to reduce the memory
consumption without multi cycle processing, but I don't understand
the actual benefit yet because page cache is reclaimable and it's
generally usable. Does it practically affect the minimum size of
crashkernel= which makedumpfile can work on ?
Instead, if you say frequent page cache reclaiming will cause performance
regression, it sounds reasonable. However, even from the view point of
performance, page cached I/O is better than direct I/O according to your
test results.
Please explain the practical benefit of Direct I/O, otherwise I can't
decide to accept this.
Thanks
Atsushi Kumagai

>This patch adds a -j to makedumpfile. With this option it uses direct i/o on the dump
>file and the bitmap file, thus enabling makedumpfile to run mode in a fairly small
>crashkernel area without using cyclic mode. It can dump a system with many terabytes
>of memory using crashkernel=450M.
>
>Without direct i/o the crash kernel will use kernel page cache for the writes. This
>will use up a great deal of the crash kernel's alloted memory.
>
>The -j option will also implicitly avoid cyclic mode. Cyclic mode is slower, and
>is not needed if we use direct i/o.
>Direct i/o is of course a bit slower, but not significantly slower when used in this
>almost-entirely sequential fashion.
