[PATCH v2 3/8] fs/buffer: introduce __find_get_block_nonatomic()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Callers that do not require atomic context for pagecache
lookups can use this flavor to avoid the unnencesary
contention on the blockdev mapping i_private_lock as well
as waiting on noref migration.

Convert local caller write_boundary_block() which already
takes the buffer lock as well as bdev_getblk() depending
on the respective gpf flags. Either way there are no
currently changes in semantics.
