Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- Hmm, so this goes back to this[1] thread, right? IIRC, we wanted to end up with an lru-bypassing uncached buffer lookup mechanism to provide uncached behavior for resource-saving purposes but without introducing serialization issues between multiple users of uncached buffers. On a quick look back, growfs currently uses cached buffers for secondary superblocks and the associated patch was looking to change that to something like the above. Don't we have the same requirement here (since growfs currently still uses cached buffers)?
