[PATCH v5 00/14] gfs2 iomap write support

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

 



Here's an update of my gfs2 iomap write patch queue, with support for
buffered writes as well as direct I/O reads and writes through iomap.
This update fixes a few bugs in the gfs2 specific parts.  The patches
are still meant for the upcoming merge window.

The first five patches are minor gfs2 specific cleanups and
improvements.

The actual fun starts with patch "iomap: Add write_{begin,end} iomap
operations" which adds callbacks into the filesystem for any per-page
processing.  Christoph has suggested that at least the stuffed inode
(aka. inline data) handline should be moved to the iomap_{begin,end}
operations.  As the last patch tries to demonstrate, this is a bit
tricky, so even though Christoph's approach is slightly cleaner
conceptually, it doesn't look like an improvement overall.

Patches "iomap: Mark newly allocated buffer heads as new" and "iomap:
Complete partial direct I/O writes synchronously" have been added as
discussed.

A 4.17-rc7 based version of the patches can be found here:

Thanks,

  iomap: inline data should be an iomap type, not a flag
