Subject: [PATCH v9 02/26] mm: Make readahead store folio count in readahead_control
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2026 15:47:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260810144746.574036-3-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260810144746.574036-1-dhowells@redhat.com>
Make readahead store folio count in readahead_control so that the
filesystem can know in advance how many folios it needs to keep track of.
This is cleared by read_pages() in case it is called from a loop.
The count is accessed by the filesystem with readahead_folio_count().
