Looking at the code, the dirty/writeback checks where I'm making changes are all in the !is_shmem branch, so it only affects regular files, not shmem.Yeah sorry I think I was being somehow blind to the fact that each dirty/writeback test has !is_shmem, esp. given I literally quote it there :) So err ignore me I think here hahaquoted
Should I mention in the commit message that these changes are limited to regular files and don't affect shmem?No that's fine.quoted
I'm not sure I fully understood your concern on shmem. Could you please elaborate?Yeah I think I just misread the code after a long day :Pquoted
Thanks for clarifying! I held off adding your Reviewed-by tag to v2 since there were some more changes from v1. Let me know if you're still happy with it and I can add it for v3. Best Regards, Shivank
