31 * I/O completion handler for multipage BIOs.
33 * The mpage code never puts partial pages into a BIO (except for end-of-file).
34 * If a page does not map to a contiguous run of blocks then it simply falls
35 * back to block_read_full_page().
37 * Why is this? If a page's completion depends on a number of different BIOs
38 * which can complete in any order (or at the same time) then determining the
39 * status of that page is hard. See end_buffer_async_read() for the details.
40 * There is no point in duplicating all that complexity.

330 * @mapping: the address_space
331 * @pages: The address of a list_head which contains the target pages. These
332 * pages have their ->index populated and are otherwise uninitialised.
333 * The page at @pages->prev has the lowest file offset, and reads should be
334 * issued in @pages->prev to @pages->next order.
335 * @nr_pages: The number of pages at *@pages
336 * @get_block: The filesystem's block mapper function.
338 * This function walks the pages and the blocks within each page, building and
339 * emitting large BIOs.
341 * If anything unusual happens, such as:
343 * - encountering a page which has buffers
344 * - encountering a page which has a non-hole after a hole
345 * - encountering a page with non-contiguous blocks
347 * then this code just gives up and calls the buffer_head-based read function.
348 * It does handle a page which has holes at the end - that is a common case:
349 * the end-of-file on blocksize < PAGE_CACHE_SIZE setups.
351 * BH_Boundary explanation:
353 * There is a problem. The mpage read code assembles several pages, gets all
354 * their disk mappings, and then submits them all. That's fine, but obtaining
355 * the disk mappings may require I/O. Reads of indirect blocks, for example.
357 * So an mpage read of the first 16 blocks of an ext2 file will cause I/O to be
358 * submitted in the following order:
359 * 12 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 13 14 15 16
361 * because the indirect block has to be read to get the mappings of blocks
362 * 13,14,15,16. Obviously, this impacts performance.
364 * So what we do it to allow the filesystem's get_block() function to set
365 * BH_Boundary when it maps block 11. BH_Boundary says: mapping of the block
366 * after this one will require I/O against a block which is probably close to
367 * this one. So you should push what I/O you have currently accumulated.
369 * This all causes the disk requests to be issued in the correct order.

656 * If this is NULL then use a_ops->writepage. Otherwise, go
659 * This is a library function, which implements the writepages()
660 * address_space_operation.
662 * If a page is already under I/O, generic_writepages() skips it, even
663 * if it's dirty. This is desirable behaviour for memory-cleaning writeback,
664 * but it is INCORRECT for data-integrity system calls such as fsync(). fsync()
665 * and msync() need to guarantee that all the data which was dirty at the time
666 * the call was made get new I/O started against them. If wbc->sync_mode is
667 * WB_SYNC_ALL then we were called for data integrity and we must wait for
668 * existing IO to complete.
