28 * __mark_inode_dirty - internal function
29 * @inode: inode to mark
30 * @flags: what kind of dirty (i.e. I_DIRTY_SYNC)
31 * Mark an inode as dirty. Callers should use mark_inode_dirty or
32 * mark_inode_dirty_sync.
34 * Put the inode on the super block's dirty list.
36 * CAREFUL! We mark it dirty unconditionally, but move it onto the
37 * dirty list only if it is hashed or if it refers to a blockdev.
38 * If it was not hashed, it will never be added to the dirty list
39 * even if it is later hashed, as it will have been marked dirty already.
41 * In short, make sure you hash any inodes _before_ you start marking
42 * them dirty.
44 * This function *must* be atomic for the I_DIRTY_PAGES case -
45 * set_page_dirty() is called under spinlock in several places.
47 * Note that for blockdevs, inode->dirtied_when represents the dirtying time of
48 * the block-special inode (/dev/hda1) itself. And the ->dirtied_when field of
49 * the kernel-internal blockdev inode represents the dirtying time of the
50 * blockdev's pages. This is why for I_DIRTY_PAGES we always use
51 * page->mapping->host, so the page-dirtying time is recorded in the internal
52 * blockdev inode.

661 * It is a waste of resources to have more than one pdflush thread blocked on
662 * a single request queue. Exclusion at the request_queue level is obtained
663 * via a flag in the request_queue's backing_dev_info.state.
665 * Non-request_queue-backed address_spaces will share default_backing_dev_info,
666 * unless they implement their own. Which is somewhat inefficient, as this
667 * may prevent concurrent writeback against multiple devices.
