[PATCH 0/7] Kill the btree inode

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

 



In order to provide a better way to do subpage blocksizes we need to stop
allocating pages from a per fs btree inode and instead allocate our own pages.
This work depends on 3 generic patches that I've sent previously

remove mapping from balance_dirty_pages*()
writeback: allow for dirty metadata accounting
writeback: introduce super_operations->write_metadata

This is a pretty big change but ultimately makes extent_buffer reclaim much
cleaner and will make the sub-pagesize blocksize work significantly cleaner.
I've been hammering on this for a few weeks now and seems to be pretty solid.
Thanks,

Josef
