Subject: [PATCH v7 10/24] mm: Add readahead address space operation
Date: Wed, 19 Feb 2020 13:00:49 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200219210103.32400-11-willy@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200219210103.32400-1-willy@infradead.org>
From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@infradead.org>
This replaces ->readpages with a saner interface:
- Return void instead of an ignored error code.
- Page cache is already populated with locked pages when ->readahead
is called.
- New arguments can be passed to the implementation without changing
all the filesystems that use a common helper function like
mpage_readahead().

+ Called by the VM to read pages associated with the address_space

called by the VM to read pages associated with the address_space

Instead of just one page, several pages are requested.
readpages is only used for read-ahead, so read errors are
