This patch list fixes an issue about ocfs2 aio/dio write process hang. The call trace is like

Hi folks, This patchset adds vhost-blk support. vhost-blk is a in kernel virito-blk device accelerator. Compared to userspace virtio-blk implementation, vhost-blk gives about 5% to 15% performance improvement. Asias He (5): aio: Export symbols and struct kiocb_batch for in kernel aio usage eventfd: Export symbol eventfd_file_create() vhost: Make vhost a separate module vhost-net: Use

V1->V2: Check to see if our current ppos is >= i_size after a short DIO read, just in case it was actually a short read and we need to just return. This is similar to what already happens in the write case. If we have a short read while doing O_DIRECT, instead of just returning, fallthrough and try to read the rest via buffered IO. BTRFS needs this because if we encounter a compressed or

From: John Hubbard <jhubbard at nvidia.com> Hi, This is mostly Jerome's work, converting the block/bio and related areas to call put_user_page*() instead of put_page(). Because I've changed Jerome's patches, in some cases significantly, I'd like to get his feedback before we actually leave him listed as the author (he might want to disown some or all of these). I added a
