[PATCH v3 4/4] ext4: support uncached buffered I/O

From: 陈涛涛 Taotao Chen <hidden>
Date: 2025-06-27 11:03:37
Also in: dri-devel, intel-gfx, linux-block, linux-ext4, linux-fsdevel, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: ext4 file system, filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: "Theodore Ts'o", Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

From: Taotao Chen <redacted>

Set FOP_DONTCACHE in ext4_file_operations to declare support for
uncached buffered I/O.

To handle this flag, add processing for IOCB_DONTCACHE in
ext4_write_begin() and ext4_da_write_begin() by passing FGP_DONTCACHE
to page cache lookups.

Part of a series refactoring address_space_operations write_begin and
write_end callbacks to use struct kiocb for passing write context and
flags.
