From 23c47d2ada9f96731492a67b28c0072715075baa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Minchan Kim Date: Wed, 15 Nov 2017 17:33:00 -0800 Subject: bdi: introduce BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO As discussed at https://lkml.kernel.org/r/<20170728165604.10455-1-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com> someday we will remove rw_page(). If so, we need something to detect such super-fast storage on which synchronous IO operations like the current rw_page are always a win. Introduces BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO to indicate such devices. With it, we could use various optimization techniques.
