fs: remove the bh_end_io argument from __block_write_full_folio

2023-12-29T19:58:36Z

All callers are passing end_buffer_async_write as this argument, so we can hardcode references to it within __block_write_full_folio(). That lets us make end_buffer_async_write() static.

fs: convert block_write_full_page to block_write_full_folio

2023-12-29T19:58:35Z

Convert the function to be compatible with writepage_t so that it can be passed to write_cache_pages() by blkdev. This removes a call to compound_head(). We can also remove the function export as both callers are built-in.

fs: remove clean_page_buffers()

2023-12-29T19:58:33Z

Patch series "Clean up the writeback paths". Most of these patches verge on the trivial, converting filesystems that just use block_write_full_page() to use mpage_writepages(). But as we saw with Christoph's earlier patchset, there can be some "interesting" gotchas, and I clearly haven't tested the majority of filesystems I've touched here. Patches 3 & 4 get rid of a lot of stack usage on architectures with larger page sizes; 1024 bytes on 64-bit systems with 64KiB pages. It starts to open the door to larger folio sizes on all architectures, but it's certainly not enough yet. Patch 14 is kind of trivial, but it's nice to get that simplification in. This patch (of 14): This function has been unused since the removal of bdev_write_page().

With all users converted, remove the old create_empty_buffers() and rename folio_create_empty_buffers() to create_empty_buffers().

buffer: make folio_create_empty_buffers() return a buffer_head

2023-10-25T23:47:08Z

Patch series "Finish the create_empty_buffers() transition", v2. Pankaj recently added folio_create_empty_buffers() as the folio equivalent to create_empty_buffers(). This patch set finishes the conversion by first converting all remaining filesystems to call folio_create_empty_buffers(), then renaming it back to create_empty_buffers(). I took the opportunity to make a few simplifications like making folio_create_empty_buffers() return the head buffer and extracting get_nth_bh() from nilfs2. A few of the patches in this series aren't directly related to create_empty_buffers(), but I saw them while I was working on this and thought they'd be easy enough to add to this series. Compile-tested only, other than ext4. This patch (of 26): Almost all callers want to know the first BH that was allocated for this folio. We already have that handy, so return it.

ext4: call bdev_getblk() from sb_getblk_gfp()

2023-10-04T17:32:29Z

Most of the callers of sb_getblk_gfp() already assumed that they were passing the entire GFP flags to use. Fix up the two callers that didn't, and remove the __GFP_NOFAIL from them since they both appear to correctly handle failure.
