Subject: [PATCH v3 6/9] mm: Make __swap_writepage() do async DIO if asked for it
Date: Fri, 24 Sep 2021 18:18:54 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <163250393435.2330363.12822795853508093546.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <163250387273.2330363.13240781819520072222.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk>

Make __swap_writepage()'s DIO path do sync DIO if the writeback control's
sync mode is WB_SYNC_ALL and async DIO if not.

Note that this causes hanging processes in sunrpc if the swapfile is on
NFS.  I'm not sure whether it's due to misscheduling or something else.
