From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx> release_pages() has been available to modules since Oct, 2010, when commit 0be8557bcd34 ("fuse: use release_pages()") added EXPORT_SYMBOL(release_pages). However, this ceph code was still using a workaround. Remove the workaround, and call release_pages() directly.

So I was looking around for examples, and stumbled across this, which seems worth cleaning up. thanks, John Hubbard NVIDIA fs/ceph/addr.c | 19 +------------------ 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/ceph/addr.c b/fs/ceph/addr.c index e078cc55b989..22ed45d143be 100644 --- a/fs/ceph/addr.c +++ b/fs/ceph/addr.c @@ -679,23 +679,6 @@ static int ceph_writepage(struct page *page, struct writeback_control *wbc) return err; } -/* - * lame release_pages helper. release_pages() isn't exported to - * modules. - */ -static void ceph_release_pages(struct page **pages, int num) -{ - struct pagevec pvec; - int i; - - pagevec_init(&pvec); - for (i = 0; i < num; i++) { - if (pagevec_add(&pvec, pages[i]) == 0) - pagevec_release(&pvec); - } - pagevec_release(&pvec); -} - /* * async writeback completion handler. * @@ -769,7 +752,7 @@ static void writepages_finish(struct ceph_osd_request *req) dout("writepages_finish %p wrote %llu bytes cleaned %d pages\n", inode, osd_data->length, rc >= 0 ? num_pages : 0); - ceph_release_pages(osd_data->pages, num_pages); + release_pages(osd_data->pages, num_pages); } ceph_put_wrbuffer_cap_refs(ci, total_pages, snapc); -- 2.22.0
