Subject: [Bug 54271] New: readahead() docs incorrectly say it blocks
Date: Sat, 23 Feb 2013 04:25:20 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-54271-11311@https.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54271
Summary: readahead() docs incorrectly say it blocks
Product: Documentation
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: man-pages
AssignedTo: documentation_man-pages-ztI5WcYan/vQLgFONoPN62D2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org
ReportedBy: psusi-3tLf1voIkJTQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org
Regression: No
The readahead(2) man page says that it blocks until the requested data has been
read. The whole point of this call is that it does NOT block but initiates
background reads of data that will be required soon, so that when it is read,
hopefully it can be done without blocking.
