[PATCH v3 00/18] Allow readpage to return a locked page

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

 



I've dropped the conversion of readpage implementations to synchronous
from this patchset.  I realised I'd neglected the requirement for making
the sleep killable, and that turns out to be more convoluted to fix.

So these patches add:
 - An error-path bugfix for cachefiles.
 - The ability for the filesystem to tell the caller of ->readpage
   that the read was successful and the page was not unlocked.  This is
   a performance improvement for some scenarios that I think are rare.
 - Mildly improved error handling for ext4.
