block: add sync_blockdev_range()

2022-05-23T02:17:30Z

sync_blockdev_range() is to support syncing multiple sectors with as few block device requests as possible, it is helpful to make the block device to give full play to its performance.

block: turn bdev->bd_openers into an atomic_t

2022-04-18T12:54:09Z

All manipulation of bd_openers is under disk->open_mutex and will remain so for the foreseeable future. But at least one place reads it without the lock (blkdev_get) and there are more to be added. So make sure the compiler does not do turn the increments and decrements into non-atomic sequences by using an atomic_t.

fs: allocate inode by using alloc_inode_sb()

2022-03-22T22:57:03Z

The inode allocation is supposed to use alloc_inode_sb(), so convert kmem_cache_alloc() of all filesystems to alloc_inode_sb().

block: default BLOCK_LEGACY_AUTOLOAD to y

2022-02-27T21:49:23Z

As Luis reported, losetup currently doesn't properly create the loop device without this if the device node already exists because old scripts created it manually. So default to y for now and remove the aggressive removal schedule.

mm: remove cleancache

2022-01-22T06:33:38Z

Patch series "remove Xen tmem leftovers". Since the removal of the Xen tmem driver in 2019, the cleancache hooks are entirely unused, as are large parts of frontswap. This series against linux-next (with the folio changes included) removes cleancaches, and cuts down frontswap to the bits actually used by zswap. This patch (of 13): The cleancache subsystem is unused since the removal of Xen tmem driver in commit 814bbf49dcd0 ("xen: remove tmem driver").
