[PATCH v4 00/16] Overhaul multi-page lookups for THP

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

 



This THP prep patchset changes several page cache iteration APIs to only
return head pages.

 - It's only possible to tag head pages in the page cache, so only
   return head pages, not all their subpages.
 - Factor a lot of common code out of the various batch lookup routines
 - Add mapping_seek_hole_data()
 - Unify find_get_entries() and pagevec_lookup_entries()
 - Make find_get_entries only return head pages, like find_get_entry().

These are only loosely connected, but they seem to make sense together
as a series.

v4:
 - Add FGP_ENTRY, remove find_get_entry and find_lock_entry
 - Rename xas_find_get_entry to find_get_entry
 - Add "Optimise get_shadow_from_swap_cache"
 - Move "iomap: Use mapping_seek_hole_data" to this patch series
 - Rebase against next-20201112
