* mm: zcache/tmem/cleancache: s/flush/invalidate/Dan Magenheimer2012-01-231-8/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Complete the renaming from "flush" to "invalidate" across both tmem frontends (cleancache and frontswap) and both tmem backends (Xen and zcache), as required by akpm. This change is completely cosmetic.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per akpm suggestions alter the use of the term flush to be invalidate. The next patch will do this across all MM. This change is completely cosmetic.

* mm: cleancache core ops functions and configDan Magenheimer2011-05-261-0/+122
This third patch of eight in this cleancache series provides the core code for cleancache that interfaces between the hooks in VFS and individual filesystems and a cleancache backend. It also includes build and config patches. Two new files are added: mm/cleancache.c and include/linux/cleancache.h. Note that CONFIG_CLEANCACHE can default to on; in systems that do not provide a cleancache backend, all hooks devolve to a simple check of a global enable flag, so performance impact should be negligible but can be reduced to zero impact if config'ed off. However for this first commit, it defaults to off. Details and a FAQ can be found in Documentation/vm/cleancache.txt Credits: Cleancache_ops design derived from Jeremy Fitzhardinge design for tmem [v8: dan.magenheimer@oracle.com: fix exportfs call affecting btrfs] [v8: akpm@linux-foundation.org: use static inline function, not macro] [v7: dan.magenheimer@oracle.com: cleanup sysfs and remove cleancache prefix] [v6: JBeulich@novell.com: robustly handle buggy fs encode_fh actor definition] [v5: jeremy@goop.org: clean up global usage and static var names] [v5: jeremy@goop.org: simplify init hook and any future fs init changes] [v5: hch@infradead.org: cleaner non-global interface for ops registration] [v4: adilger@sun.com: interface must support exportfs FS's] [v4: hch@infradead.org: interface must support 64-bit FS on 32-bit kernel] [v3: akpm@linux-foundation.org: use one ops struct to avoid pointer hops] [v3: akpm@linux-foundation.org: document and ensure PageLocked reqts are met] [v3: ngupta@vflare.org: fix success/fail codes, change funcs to void] [v2: viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk: use sane types] Signed-off-by: Dan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Reviewed-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Acked-by: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Acked-by: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> Acked-by: Minchan Kim <minchan.kim@gmail.com> Acked-by: Andreas Dilger <adilger@sun.com> Acked-by: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@novell.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Rik Van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com> Cc: Ted Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com> Cc: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
