cleanup the filemap / direct I/O interaction v3

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

 



Hi all,

this series cleans up some of the generic write helper calling
conventions and the page cache writeback / invalidation for
direct I/O.  This is a spinoff from the no-bufferhead kernel
project, for which we'll want to an use iomap based buffered
write path in the block layer.

Changes since v2:
 - stick to the existing behavior of returning a short write
   if the buffer fallback write or sync fails
 - bring back "fuse: use direct_write_fallback" which accidentally
   got lost in v2

Changes since v1:
 - remove current->backing_dev_info entirely
 - fix the pos/end calculation in direct_write_fallback
 - rename kiocb_invalidate_post_write to
   kiocb_invalidate_post_direct_write
 - typo fixes
