Re: [f2fs-dev] [PATCH 2/2] f2fs: add F2FS_IOC_DECOMPRESS_FILE and F2FS_IOC_COMPRESS_FILE

Chao,

Got it~

Eric,

Actually, I wanted to detour the internal readahead mechanism using
page_cache_ra_unbounded() to generate cluster size aligned read
requests.
But, page_cache_async_readahead() or page_cache_sync_readahead() can
be also good enough, since those can compensate for the misaligned
reads reading more pages in advance.

Thanks,
