SubjectRe: [RFC PATCH] nfs: Support posix_fadvise(POSIX_FADV_RANDOM) on nfs server.
Hi Namjae,

I'm glad you also see the usefulness of sending such hints to the NFS
server.

Beyond reviewing the NFSv4.2 spec, it would also be very useful to
implement a version of IO_ADVISE and show performance results with your
traverse test (among others). If you have time for this, that would
really be helpful in ensuring the usefulness of IO_ADVISE.
