[PATCH UPDATED 10/11] fs, block: propagate REQ_FLUSH/FUA interface to upper layers

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

 



Propagate deprecation of REQ_HARDBARRIER and new REQ_FLUSH/FUA
interface to upper layers.

* WRITE_BARRIER is marked deprecated and WRITE_FLUSH, WRITE_FUA and
  WRITE_FLUSH_FUA are added.

* REQ_COMMON_MASK now includes REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA so that they are
  copied from bio to request.

* BH_Ordered and BH_Eopnotsupp are marked deprecated.  BH_Flush/FUA
  are _NOT_ added as they can and should be specified when calling
  submit_bh() as @rw parameter as suggested by Jan Kara.

Dropped BH_Flush/FUA as suggested.

Thanks.
