The patch titled Subject: buffer: convert __block_commit_write() to take a folio has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is buffer-convert-__block_commit_write-to-take-a-folio.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/buffer-convert-__block_commit_write-to-take-a-folio.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: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: buffer: convert __block_commit_write() to take a folio Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2023 22:01:35 +0100 This removes a hidden call to compound_head() inside __block_commit_write() and moves it to those callers which are still page based. Also make block_write_end() safe for large folios.
