Like this? #define iterate_mapping(i, n, __v, skip, STEP) { \ struct page *page; \ size_t wanted = n, seg, offset; \ loff_t start = i->mapping_start + skip; \ pgoff_t index = start >> PAGE_SHIFT; \ \ XA_STATE(xas, &i->mapping->i_pages, index); \ \ rcu_read_lock(); \ xas_for_each(&xas, page, ULONG_MAX) { \ if (xas_retry(&xas, page) || xa_is_value(page)) { \ WARN_ON(1); \ break; \ } \ __v.bv_page = find_subpage(page, xas.xa_index); \ offset = (i->mapping_start + skip) & ~PAGE_MASK; \ seg = PAGE_SIZE - offset; \ __v.bv_offset = offset; \ __v.bv_len = min(n, seg); \ (void)(STEP); \ n -= __v.bv_len; \ skip += __v.bv_len; \ if (n == 0) \ break; \ } \ rcu_read_unlock(); \ n = wanted - n; \ } Note that the walk is not restartable - and the array is supposed to have been fully populated by the caller for the range specified - so I've made it print a warning and end the loop if xas_retry() or xa_is_value() return true (which takes care of the !page case too). Possibly I could just leave it to fault in this case and not check. If PageHuge(page) is true, I presume I need to support that too. How do I find out how big the page is? David
