Subject: [PATCH 0/8] block: prepare for multipage bvecs
Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2016 14:12:21 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1458627149-12988-1-git-send-email-ming.lei@canonical.com> (raw)

Hi,

Interests[1] have been shown in multipage bvecs, so this patchset
try to prepare for the support and do two things:

1) the 1st 4 patches use bvec iterator to implement iterate_bvec(),
then we can drop the non-standard way for iterating bvec

2) remove BIO_MAX_SECTORS & BIO_MAX_SIZE, and now there is only
one user for each. Once multipage bvecs is introduced, one bio
may hold lots of sectors, and we should always use sort of BIO_MAX_VECS
which should be introduced in future and is similiar with current
BIO_MAX_PAGES.

xfstests(-a auto) have been run and no regression found by this
patchset against linus v4.5+.
