Subject: [PATCH 05/11] pagevec: Add ability to iterate a queue
Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2023 14:25:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231214132544.376574-6-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231214132544.376574-1-hch@lst.de>
From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@infradead.org>
Add a loop counter inside the folio_batch to let us iterate from 0-nr
instead of decrementing nr and treating the batch as a stack. It would
generate some very weird and suboptimal I/O patterns for page writeback
to iterate over the batch as a stack.
