There are several cleanups for extent_write_locked_range(), most of them are pure cleanups, but with some preparation for future subpage support. - Add a proper comment for which call sites are suitable Unlike regular synchronized extent write back, if async COW or zoned COW happens, we have all pages in the range still locked. Thus for those (only) two call sites, we need this function to submit page content into bios and submit them. - Remove @mode parameter All the existing two call sites pass WB_SYNC_ALL. No need for @mode parameter. - Better error handling Currently if we hit an error during the page iteration loop, we overwrite @ret, causing only the last error can be recorded. Here we add @found_error and @first_error variable to record if we hit any error, and the first error we hit. So the first error won't get lost. - Don't reuse @start as the cursor We reuse the parameter @start as the cursor to iterate the range, not a big problem, but since we're here, introduce a proper @cur as the cursor. - Remove impossible branch Since all pages are still locked after the ordered extent is inserted, there is no way that pages can get its dirty bit cleared. Remove the branch where page is not dirty and replace it with an ASSERT(). Signed-off-by: Qu Wenruo <wqu@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
