Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mm/readahead: try to allocate high order pages for FADVISE_FAV_WILLNEED
Date: Tue,  2 Dec 2025 01:30:13 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251202013212.964298-4-jaegeuk@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251202013212.964298-1-jaegeuk@kernel.org>

This patch assigns the max folio order for readahead. After applying this patch,
it starts with high-order page allocation successfully as shown in the below
traces.

Before:
 f2fs_fadvise: dev = (252,16), ino = 14, i_size = 4294967296 offset:0, len:536870912, advise:3
