From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This set of patches represents an initial effort to convert the page cache I/O in the NFS client to use native folio functionality. It should allow the nfs_page structs and their helpers to carry folios (including folios of order > 0) and to pass their data contents through to the RPC layer. Note that because O_DIRECT uses pages, we still need to support the traditional page based I/O, and so the new struct nfs_page will carry both types. I did not touch the fscache code, but I expect that to be able to continue to work with order 0 folios. The plan is to merge this functionality with order 0 folios first, in order to catch any regressions in existing functionality. Then we can enable order n > 0 once we're happy about the stability (at least for the non-fscache case). At this point, the xfstests are all passing without any regressions on my setup, so I'm throwing the patches over the fence to allow for wider testing. Please make sure, in particular to test pNFS if your server supports it. I didn't have to make any changes to the pNFS code, and I don't expect any trouble, but it would be good to have validation of that assumption.
