The first patch ensures ->end_io is always called for direct I/O requests that pass it in, even if there was a zero length write, or if an error occured. The existing users have been updated to ignore it, but XFS will make use of it in the future, and a comment in ext4 suggests it might be useful for it as well. The other two simplify the XFS direct I/O code. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
