Fields

lookups: u32

This is a count of the number of file name directory lookups in XFS filesystems. It counts only those lookups which miss in the operating system's directory name lookup cache and must search the real directory structure for the name in question. The count is incremented once for each level of a pathname search that results in a directory lookup.

creates: u32

This is the number of times a new directory entry was created in XFS filesystems. Each time that a new file, directory, link, symbolic link, or special file is created in the directory hierarchy the count is incremented.

removes: u32

This is the number of times an existing directory entry was removed in XFS filesystems. Each time that a file, directory, link, symbolic link, or special file is removed from the directory hierarchy the count is incremented.

get_dents: u32

This is the number of times the XFS directory getdents operation was performed. The getdents operation is used by programs to read the contents of directories in a file system independent fashion. This count corresponds exactly to the number of times the getdents(2) system call was successfully used on an XFS directory.
