You do both realize that this is just the file specific hint? Inode based hints will still work fine for UFS. -- Jens Axboe
Jens, Thanks for this reply. This whole patch series removes support for per-bio write_hint. Without bio write_hint, F2FS won't be able to cascade Hot/Warm/Cold information to SCSI / UFS driver. This is my current understanding. I might be wrong but I don't think we Are concerned with inode hint (as well as file hints). Thanks, Luca Micron Confidential
