This series cuts down the amount of fiels in the public iocb that is allocated on stack for every synchronous I/O, both by removing fields from it, and by adding a aio-specific iocb that is only allocated for aio requests. Additionally it cleans up various corner cases in the aio completion code and adds a simple in-kernel async read/write interface. Note that there still are some issues with fuse, see the first patch for details. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
