Then let's fix that to use the same interface as everything else, and that simplifies the implementation down to just: static inline int xfs_buf_incore( struct xfs_buftarg *target, xfs_daddr_t blkno, size_t numblks, xfs_buf_flags_t flags, struct xfs_buf **bpp) { DEFINE_SINGLE_BUF_MAP(map, blkno, numblks); return xfs_buf_get_map(target, &map, 1, _XBF_INCORE | flags, NULL, bpp); } And, FWIW, the _XBF_NOALLOC flag really wants to be _XBF_INCORE - we need it to describe the lookup behaviour the flag provides, not the internal implementation detail that acheives the desired behaviour....
