Changes since v15: - Fix a newly introduced build failure in ubifs - Split the 'move super_block to writeback_control' into a prep patch. - Elevate super_block ref count before diving into generic_sync_sb_inodes(), not sure about this approach yet. Should match the old code, but perhaps we can do better. This fixes the issue that Ted saw with delayed writeout of dirty inodes after RO mount. - Pass wbc around in fs-writeback.c instead of 3-4 arguments. b/block/blk-core.c | 1 b/drivers/block/aoe/aoeblk.c | 1 b/drivers/char/mem.c | 1 b/drivers/staging/pohmelfs/inode.c | 3 b/fs/btrfs/disk-io.c | 1 b/fs/buffer.c | 2 b/fs/char_dev.c | 1 b/fs/configfs/inode.c | 1 b/fs/fs-writeback.c | 908 ++++++++++++++++++++--------- b/fs/fuse/inode.c | 1 b/fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c | 1 b/fs/nfs/client.c | 1 b/fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmfs.c | 1 b/fs/ramfs/inode.c | 1 b/fs/super.c | 3 b/fs/sync.c | 2 b/fs/sysfs/inode.c | 1 b/fs/ubifs/budget.c | 5 b/fs/ubifs/super.c | 4 b/include/linux/backing-dev.h | 56 + b/include/linux/fs.h | 10 b/include/linux/writeback.h | 19 b/kernel/cgroup.c | 1 b/kernel/sysctl.c | 8 b/mm/Makefile | 2 b/mm/backing-dev.c | 379 +++++++++++- b/mm/page-writeback.c | 174 +---- b/mm/swap_state.c | 1 b/mm/vmscan.c | 2 mm/pdflush.c | 269 -------- 30 files changed, 1162 insertions(+), 698 deletions(-) -- Jens Axboe
