[PATCH v2 00/28] iomap/xfs folio patches

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

 



This patchset converts XFS & iomap to use folios, and gets them to a
state where they can handle multi-page folios.  Applying these patches
is not yet sufficient to actually start using multi-page folios for
XFS; more page cache changes are needed.  I don't anticipate needing to
touch XFS again until we're at the point where we want to convert the
aops to be type-safe.  It completes an xfstests run with no unexpected
failures.  Most of these patches have been posted before and I've retained
acks/reviews where I thought them reasonable.  Some patches are new.

v2:
 - Added review tags from Jens, Darrick & Christoph (thanks!)
 - Added folio_zero_* wrappers around zero_user_*()
 - Added a patch to rename AS_THP_SUPPORT
 - Added a patch to convert __block_write_begin_int() to take a folio
 - Split the iomap_add_to_ioend() patch into three
 - Updated changelog of bio_add_folio() (Jens)
 - Adjusted whitespace of bio patches (Christoph, Jens)
 - Improved changelog of readahead conversion to explain why the put_page()
   disappeared (Christoph)
 - Add a patch to zero an entire folio at a time, instead of limiting to
   a page
 - Switch pos & end_pos back to being u64 from loff_t
 - Call block_write_end() and ->page_done with the head page of the folio,
   as that's what those functions expect.

I intend to push patch 1 upstream myself (before 5.16), but I've included
it here to avoid nasty messages from the build-bots.  I can probably
persuade Linus to take patches 2-4 as well if Darrick's not comfortable
taking them as part of the iomap changes.

These changes are also available at:
  git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/pagecache.git heads/folio-iomap

I intend to rebase that branch to include any further R-b tags (some of
the patches are new and don't have reviews).
