This all approach sounds very good to me. But please I have some questions?
In the nfs_pageio_descriptor passed to pg_test() together with the two pages:
Which member means the current byte_size (or page_count?) and what is the
meaning of some of these fields
struct nfs_pageio_descriptor {
....
unsigned long pg_bytes_written;
Is this for result after read/write?
size_t pg_count;
Is this the number of pages added up to now?
Do we also have the start of the first page?
size_t pg_bsize;
So I understand this is the max allowed pages. Does
that mean also the allocated size or Just the negotiated
size with the server? (Really bad name if you ask me)
unsigned int pg_base;
Is that the index of the first page? That cannot be, the page->index
needs to be 64bit. So what is this then?
...
};
Thanks
Boaz
