Subject: Re: [PATCHSET] Add support for simplified async direct-io
Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2016 09:16:52 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161116171652.GA30008@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <72b1725a-0363-d33e-f890-251b1ac88998@kernel.dk>

I've pushed out a new version of my code that avoids atomic ops
for the single bio case:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/block.git/shortlog/refs/heads/new-dio

I think we should take your extension of the existing
__blkdev_direct_IO_simple to kmalloc up to BIO_MAX_PAGES and then use
the above implementation for AIO and large synchronous I/O.

I think I can also kill of blkdev_dio_pool by simply using bio_kmalloc
as we're only doing the allocation at the beginning of the call,
but I'd like to agree on an approach before spending too much time on
it.
