[PATCH] BLOCK: Dissociate generic_writepages() from mpage stuff [try #6] ... Dissociate the generic_writepages() function from the mpage stuff, moving its declaration to linux/mm.h and actually emitting a full implementation into mm/page-writeback.c. The implementation is a partial duplicate of mpage_writepages() with all BIO references removed. It is used by NFS to do writeback.

[PATCH] revert ext3-writepages-support-for-writeback-mode ... This had a fatal lock ranking bug: we do journal_start outside mpage_writepages()'s lock_page(). Revert the whole thing, think again.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 ... Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip! Linus Torvalds   commited 2005-04-16 15:20:36 -07:00	1da177e4c3
