[RFC PATCH v2 4/5] mm: Make __swap_writepage() do async DIO if asked for it

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

 



Make __swap_writepage()'s DIO path do sync DIO if the writeback control's
sync mode is WB_SYNC_ALL and async DIO if not.

Note that this causes hanging processes in sunrpc if the swapfile is on
NFS.  I'm not sure whether it's due to misscheduling or something else.
