Hi,
Following patches add support to map multiple blocks in ->get_block(). This is will allow us to handle mapping of multiple disk blocks for mpage_readpages() and mpage_writepages() etc. Instead of adding new argument, I use "b_size" to indicate the amount of disk mapping needed for get_block().
Now that get_block() can handle multiple blocks, there is no need for ->get_blocks() which was added for DIO. Second patch removes them.
[PATCH 1/2] map multiple blocks in get_block() for mpage_readpages()
[PATCH 2/2] remove ->get_blocks() support
Andrew, Please let me know if you want to pick these up into -mm tree, since they need to be integrated with Mingming's ext3 multiblock support.
Comments ?
Thanks, Badari
