Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2014 12:23:39 +0000 From: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@...hat.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, cluster-devel@...hat.com Cc: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@...hat.com> Subject: [PATCH 16/24] GFS2: No need to invalidate pages for a dio read We recently fixed the writeback of pages prior to performing direct i/o, however the initial fix was perhaps a bit heavy handed. There is no need to invalidate pages if the direct i/o is only a read, since they will be identical to what has been flushed to disk anyway.
