Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2009 09:05:00 -0400 From: Josef Bacik <josef@...hat.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: npiggin@...e.de, stable@...nel.org, linux-fsdevel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH] mm: mark page accessed before we write_end Hello, In testing a backport of the write_begin/write_end AOPs, a 10% re-read regression was noticed when running iozone. This regression was introduced because the old AOPs would always do a mark_page_accessed(page) after the commit_write, but when the new AOPs where introduced, the only place this was kept was in pagecache_write_end(). This patch does the same thing in the generic case as what is done in pagecache_write_end(), which is just to mark the page accessed before we do write_end().
