From a564da3964db3256069190c2ae95069143ac37fb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2006 00:08:47 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] readahead: ->prev_page can overrun the ahead window If get_next_ra_size() does not grow fast enough, ->prev_page can overrun the ahead window. This means the caller will read the pages from ->ahead_start + ->ahead_size to ->prev_page synchronously.
