[PATCH 2/8] nowait aio: Introduce RWF_NOWAIT

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

 



From: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@xxxxxxxx>

This flag informs kernel to bail out if an AIO request will block
for reasons such as file allocations, or a writeback triggered,
or would block while allocating requests while performing
direct I/O.

Unfortunately, aio_flags is not checked for validity, which would
break existing applications which have it set to anything besides zero
or IOCB_FLAG_RESFD. So, we are using aio_reserved1 and renaming it
to aio_rw_flags.

RWF_NOWAIT is translated to IOCB_NOWAIT for iocb->ki_flags.

The check for -EOPNOTSUPP is placed in generic_file_write_iter(). This
is called by most filesystems, either through fsops.write_iter() or through
the function defined by write_iter(). If not, we perform the check defined
by .write_iter() which is called for direct IO specifically.

Filesystems xfs, btrfs and ext4 would be supported in the following patches.
