From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx> Changes in v4: - rebase on the top of other patchset [1]. Changes in v3: - update commit message. Changes in v2: - don't export apis, and don't support build md-bitmap as module Due to known performance issues with md-bitmap and the unreasonable implementations like following: - self-managed pages, bitmap_storage->filemap; - self-managed IO submitting like filemap_write_page(); - global spin_lock ... I have decided not to continue optimizing based on the current bitmap implementation, and plan to invent a new lock-less bitmap. And a new kconfig option is a good way for isolation. However, we still encourage anyone who wants to continue optimizing the current implementation, the new bitmap will take some time to be ready. Please refer to the RFC version [2] if interested.
