Subject: [PATCH 3/7] Set block size to PAGE_SIZE
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2010 21:13:39 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1264693423-2694-4-git-send-email-ngupta@vflare.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1264693423-2694-1-git-send-email-ngupta@vflare.org>

ramzswap block size needs to be set equal to PAGE_SIZE to
avoid receiving any unaligned block I/O requests (happens
due to readahead logic during swapon). These unaligned
accesses produce unnecessary I/O errors, scaring users.
