Subject: RFC: better block swap batching and a different take on swap_ops
Date: Fri, 15 May 2026 14:00:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260515120019.4015143-1-hch@lst.de> (raw)

Hi all,

this series makes use of the swap_iocb for block as well so that it
doesn't do inefficient single-bio I/O, and then rebases the swap_ops
from Baoquan on top of the now very different method structure.

This is very hot off the press and has only survived very basic testing.
