[PATCH 1/2 block#for-linus] bio, fs: update READA and SWRITE to match the corresponding BIO_RW_* bits
Commit a82afdf (block: use the same failfast bits for bio and request) moved BIO_RW_* bits around such that they match up with REQ_* bits. Unfortunately, fs.h hard coded READ, WRITE, READA and SWRITE as 0, 1, 2 and 3, and expected them to match with BIO_RW_* bits. READ/WRITE didn't change but BIO_RW_AHEAD was move... 2 Aug 2010 11:26

Over-eager swapping
We run a number of relatively large x86-64 hosts with twenty or so qemu-kvm virtual machines on each of them, and I'm have some trouble with over-eager swapping on some (but not all) of the machines. This is resulting in customer reports of very poor response latency from the virtual machines which have been swappe... 4 Aug 2010 09:13
