The patch titled Subject: mm: add bdi_set_min_bytes() function has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is mm-add-bdi_set_min_bytes-function.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-add-bdi_set_min_bytes-function.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm 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 via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Stefan Roesch <shr@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: add bdi_set_min_bytes() function Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2022 16:52:07 -0800 This introduces the bdi_set_min_bytes() function. The min_bytes function does not store the min_bytes value. Instead it converts the min_bytes value into the corresponding ratio value.
