Dear Kim, I have a query here .. > > My point is that it would be better for read to not preempt > write-for-page_reclaim. > And we can identify it by PG_reclaim.

When read request comes it reclaim the pages (starts the write if syncable pages ) and get back after reclaiming the pages. Only then a read request will come to the MMC subsystem. And i think the reclaim algorithm will reclaim some substantial amount of pages at a time instead of a single page. So if we get few pages during the reclamation so there will be no problem in halting the another write ops for proceeding the reads ? Can we think of a scenario when we are reclaiming the pages and write ops is going on where as a high priority read for the interrupt handler is pending ? Please correct me if i am wrong. Thanks & Regards Manish
