[PATCH v4] f2fs: avoid splitting bio when reading multiple pages
Posted by Jianan Huang 3 months, 1 week ago
When fewer pages are read, nr_pages may be smaller than nr_cpages. Due
to the nr_vecs limit, the compressed pages will be split into multiple
bios and then merged at the block level. In this case, nr_cpages should
be used to pre-allocate bvecs.
To handle this case, align max_nr_pages to cluster_size, which should be
enough for all compressed pages.

Changes since v3:
- Keep max_nr_pages unchanged across multiple reads.
Changes since v2:
- Initialize index only for compressed files.
Changes since v1:
- Use aligned nr_pages instead of nr_cpages to pre-allocate bvecs.
