vfs: guard end of device for mpage interface

2014-10-10T02:25:53Z

Add guard_bio_eod() check for mpage code in order to allow us to do IO even on the odd last sectors of a device, even if the block size is some multiple of the physical sector size. Using mpage_readpages() for block device requires this guard check.

fs/block_dev.c: add bdev_read_page() and bdev_write_page()

2014-06-04T23:54:02Z

A block device driver may choose to provide a rw_page operation. These will be called when the filesystem is attempting to do page sized I/O to page cache pages (ie not for direct I/O). This does preclude I/Os that are larger than page size, so this may only be a performance gain for some devices.

fs/mpage.c: factor page_endio() out of mpage_end_io()

2014-06-04T23:54:02Z

page_endio() takes care of updating all the appropriate page flags once I/O has finished to a page. Switch to using mapping_set_error() instead of setting AS_EIO directly; this will handle thin-provisioned devices correctly.

fs/mpage.c: factor clean_buffers() out of __mpage_writepage()

2014-06-04T23:54:02Z

__mpage_writepage() is over 200 lines long, has 20 local variables, four goto labels and could desperately use simplification. Splitting clean_buffers() into a helper function improves matters a little, removing 20+ lines from it.

block: Abstract out bvec iterator

2013-11-24T06:33:47Z

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames things.

block: Convert various code to bio_for_each_segment()

2013-11-24T06:33:46Z

With immutable biovecs we don't want code accessing bi_io_vec directly - the uses this patch changes weren't incorrect since they all own the bio, but it makes the code harder to audit for no good reason - also, this will help with multipage bvecs later.

fs: reduce the use of module.h wherever possible

2012-02-29T00:31:58Z

For files only using THIS_MODULE and/or EXPORT_SYMBOL, map them onto including export.h -- or if the file isn't even using those, then just delete the include. Fix up any implicit include dependencies that were being masked by module.h along the way. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

mm/fs: add hooks to support cleancache

2011-05-26T16:01:43Z

This fourth patch of eight in this cleancache series provides the core hooks in VFS for: initializing cleancache per filesystem; capturing clean pages reclaimed by page cache; attempting to get pages from cleancache before filesystem read; and ensuring coherency between pagecache, disk, and cleancache. Note that the placement of these hooks was stable from 2.6.18 to 2.6.38; a minor semantic change was required due to a patchset in 2.6.39. All hooks become no-ops if CONFIG_CLEANCACHE is unset, or become a check of a boolean global if CONFIG_CLEANCACHE is set but no cleancache "backend" has claimed cleancache_ops.
