[PATCH 00/12] Start converting buffer_heads to use folios

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

 



I was hoping that filesystems would convert from buffer_heads to iomap,
but that's not happening particularly quickly.  So the buffer_head
infrastructure needs to be converted from being page-based to being
folio-based.  This is the initial patchset that I hope Andrew will take
for 6.3.  I have a lot of followup patches, but many of them should go
through individual filesystem trees (ext4, f2fs, etc).  They can wait
for 6.4.

Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) (12):
  buffer: Add b_folio as an alias of b_page
  buffer: Replace obvious uses of b_page with b_folio
  buffer: Use b_folio in touch_buffer()
  buffer: Use b_folio in end_buffer_async_read()
  buffer: Use b_folio in end_buffer_async_write()
  page_io: Remove buffer_head include
  buffer: Use b_folio in mark_buffer_dirty()
  gfs2: Replace obvious uses of b_page with b_folio
  jbd2: Replace obvious uses of b_page with b_folio
  nilfs2: Replace obvious uses of b_page with b_folio
  reiserfs: Replace obvious uses of b_page with b_folio
  mpage: Use b_folio in do_mpage_readpage()
