2023-08-21T12:52:16+00:00

btrfs, mm: remove the punt_to_cgroup field in struct writeback_control

2023-04-17T16:01:22+00:00

punt_to_cgroup is only used by extent_write_locked_range, but that function also directly controls the bio flags for the actual submission. Remove th punt_to_cgroup field, and just set REQ_CGROUP_PUNT directly in extent_write_locked_range. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: David Sterba

fs: convert writepage_t callback to pass a folio

2023-02-03T06:33:34+00:00

Patch series "Convert writepage_t to use a folio". More folioisation. I split out the mpage work from everything else because it completely dominated the patch, but some implementations I just converted outright. This patch (of 2): We always write back an entire folio, but that's currently passed as the head page. Convert all filesystems that use write_cache_pages() to expect a folio instead of a page.

mm/fs: convert inode_attach_wb() to take a folio

2023-02-03T06:33:19+00:00

Patch series "Writeback folio conversions". Remove more calls to compound_head() by passing folios around instead of pages. This patch (of 2): The only caller of inode_attach_wb() which doesn't pass NULL already has a folio, so convert the whole call-chain to take folios.

mm: Add balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_flags() function

2022-07-25T00:39:31+00:00

This adds the helper function balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_flags(). It adds the parameter flags to balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited(). The flags parameter is passed to balance_dirty_pages(). For async buffered writes the flag value will be BDP_ASYNC. If balance_dirty_pages() gets called for async buffered write, we don't want to wait. Instead we need to indicate to the caller that throttling is needed so that it can stop writing and offload the rest of the write to a context that can block. The new helper function is also used by balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited().

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain: "For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another.
