is_dirty_writeback: Called by the VM when attempting to reclaim a page.
|
||||
The VM uses dirty and writeback information to determine if it needs
|
||||
to stall to allow flushers a chance to complete some IO. Ordinarily
|
||||
it can use PageDirty and PageWriteback but some filesystems have
|
||||
more complex state (unstable pages in NFS prevent reclaim) or
|
||||
do not set those flags due to locking problems (jbd). This callback
|
||||
allows a filesystem to indicate to the VM if a page should be
|
||||
treated as dirty or writeback for the purposes of stalling.
|
||||
|
||||
error_remove_page: normally set to generic_error_remove_page if truncation
|
||||
is ok for this address space. Used for memory failure handling.
|
||||
Setting this implies you deal with pages going away under you,
