24 * POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED could set PG_Referenced, and POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE could
25 * deactivate the pages and clear PG_Referenced.
27 * LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE: start async writeout of any dirty pages between file
28 * offsets `offset' and `offset+len' inclusive. Any pages which are currently
29 * under writeout are skipped, whether or not they are dirty.
31 * LINUX_FADV_WRITE_WAIT: wait upon writeout of any dirty pages between file
32 * offsets `offset' and `offset+len'.
34 * By combining these two operations the application may do several things:
36 * LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE: push some or all of the dirty pages at the disk.
