[PATCH 21/26] block: add BIO_HOLD_PAGES flag

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For user mapped IO, we do get_user_pages() upfront, and then do a
put_page() on each page at end_io time to release the page reference. In
preparation for having permanently mapped pages, add a BIO_HOLD_PAGES
flag that tells us not to release the pages, the caller will do that.
