Nigel's current for-rafael queue

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

 



I've done some more work today. Here's an updated copy of the patches
in my queue. As you'll see, I'm focussing on the low level i/o. These
patches split out the more generic bio functions to block_io.c, leaving
swap.c with just the swap specific functions (and, at the moment, the
highlevel i/o routines). In doing this, I'm setting up a foundation
for getting rid of the swap_map pages (I'll instead store extents in
the image header), and through that for doing fully asynchronous I/O,
which should give some speed increase. The changes also lay the groundwork
for support for multiple swap devices and non-swap at a later stage.

Regards,

Nigel
