Subject: rw_swap_page() and swapin readahead
Date: Wed, 25 Nov 1998 23:02:30 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.3.96.981125225829.15920C-100000@mirkwood.dummy.home> (raw)
Hi Stephen,
it appears that rw_swap_page() needs a small change to be
able to do asynchonous swapin.
On line 128:
if (!wait) {
set_bit(PG_free_after, &page->flags);
...
}
We probably want to loose the line with PG_free_after, even
on normal swapout (or is it already gone in 2.1.130-pre3?).
If I misunderstood the code, I'll happily learn a bit :)
cheers,
Rik -- slowly getting used to dvorak kbd layout...
