The patch titled Subject: mm: add page_cache_readahead_unbounded has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-add-page_cache_readahead_unbounded.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-add-page_cache_readahead_unbounded.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-add-page_cache_readahead_unbounded.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: add page_cache_readahead_unbounded ext4 and f2fs have duplicated the guts of the readahead code so they can read past i_size. Instead, separate out the guts of the readahead code so they can call it directly.
