[PATCH v2 2/4] ext4: Pipeline buffer reads in mext_page_mkuptodate()

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

 



Instead of synchronously reading one buffer at a time, submit reads
as we walk the buffers in the first loop, then wait for them in the
second loop.  This should be significantly more efficient, particularly
on HDDs, but I have not measured.
