Subject: [PATCH v2 0/1] Convert nfs_readpages() to nfs_readahead()
Date:   Sat,  9 Oct 2021 08:36:01 -0400
Message-Id: <1633782962-18335-1-git-send-email-dwysocha@redhat.com>
Precedence: bulk

This patch converts nfs_readpages() to nfs_readahead().  It was
applied as follows:
0. Start with trond's testing branch at
0abb8895b065 NFS: Fix an Oops in pnfs_mark_request_commit()
1. Apply David Howells v3 of "fscache: Replace and remove old I/O API" [1]
2. Apply my fscache patches v2 of "Various NFS fscache cleanups" [2]
3. Apply Chucks v3 of "NFS: Replace dprintk callsites in nfs_readpage(s)"
plus one fixup (remove the "read_complete:" label in last hunk, which
conflicts with #2) [3]
4. Apply this patch

So far the existing BakeAThon tests have gone well with no oops or any
failure differences in xfstests (generic) between 5.15.0-rc4 and kernel
with #2 and #3 above.  I will continue testing now with all patches as
described above (#1 - #5).

As far as I know this has been an outstanding item for the NFS client
for a while and the fscache fallback IO API clears the way for this
patch.

I also just posted a v2 of the nfs-utils patch to display a "VFS readahead"
count rather than a readpages count [4].
