From: Markus Stockhausen Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2018 15:09:53 +0000 (-0600) Subject: readahead: stricter check for bdi io_pages X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cf12d0f9c0dc9129f08490390d14ee4d9dbf6ebb;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git readahead: stricter check for bdi io_pages commit dc30b96ab6d569060741572cf30517d3179429a8 upstream. ondemand_readahead() checks bdi->io_pages to cap the maximum pages that need to be processed. This works until the readit section. If we would do an async only readahead (async size = sync size) and target is at beginning of window we expand the pages by another get_next_ra_size() pages. Btrace for large reads shows that kernel always issues a doubled size read at the beginning of processing. Add an additional check for io_pages in the lower part of the func. The fix helps devices that hard limit bio pages and rely on proper handling of max_hw_read_sectors (e.g. older FusionIO cards). For that reason it could qualify for stable.
