Subject: merging the per-bdi writeback patchset
Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2009 10:11:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090623081156.GT31415@kernel.dk> (raw)
Hi,
Things are looking good for this patchset and it's been in -next for
almost a week without any reports of problems. So I'd like to merge it
for 2.6.31 if at all possible. Any objections?
This was the last posting of the patchset:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/17/143
git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block.git writeback
Jens Axboe (10):
writeback: move dirty inodes from super_block to backing_dev_info
writeback: switch to per-bdi threads for flushing data
writeback: get rid of pdflush completely
writeback: separate the flushing state/task from the bdi
writeback: support > 1 flusher thread per bdi
writeback: allow sleepy exit of default writeback task
writeback: add some debug inode list counters to bdi stats
writeback: add name to backing_dev_info
writeback: check for registered bdi in flusher add and inode dirty
writeback: use spin_trylock() in bdi_writeback_all() for WB_SYNC_NONE
