Replacing a page in rq_pages[] requires a get_page(), which is a bus-locked operation, and a put_page(), which can be even more costly. To reduce the cost of replacing a page in rq_pages[], batch the put_page() operations by collecting "freed" pages in a pagevec, and then release those pages when the pagevec is full. This pagevec is also emptied when each RPC completes. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
