From 5adc94c247c3779782c7b0b8b5e28cf50596eb37 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Chinner Date: Fri, 24 Sep 2010 21:58:31 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] xfs: introduced uncached buffer read primitve To avoid the need to use cached buffers for single-shot or buffers cached at the filesystem level, introduce a new buffer read primitive that bypasses the cache an reads directly from disk.
