This affects whether the page goes to the front or back of the LRU when ->cold makes it to free_hot_cold_page() Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen --- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html diff --git a/fs/ext4/inode.c b/fs/ext4/inode.c index b3c243b..f89c0e5 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/inode.c +++ b/fs/ext4/inode.c @@ -1503,6 +1503,8 @@ static void ext4_da_block_invalidatepages(struct mpage_da_data *mpd) index = mpd->first_page; end = mpd->next_page - 1; + + pagevec_init(&pvec, 0); while (index <= end) { nr_pages = pagevec_lookup(&pvec, mapping, index, PAGEVEC_SIZE); if (nr_pages == 0)
