Hi.

Could you please tell me if you are planning to support cleancache in XFS?
And when will it take place approximately?

Thank you in advance.

As soon as someone submits a patch. In theory it should just work, but the cleancache maintainer require a completely idiotic one liner to actually enable it. Feel free to submit it once you actually tested it.

Cleancache_init_fs () I can actually put where it it should be but I think it won't be enough. I think there some hooks needed (as for brtfs) but I can't fix it as I'm far from programming.

XFS uses mpage_readpages() so doesn't need other hooks. btrfs has it's own readpage path, so needs them for that.

Cheers,
