AFAIK, the current focus is also on the numbers in the original discussion thread, so it'd be better to show some numbers with large PAGE_SIZE on this with some workloads as well. https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200729230503.GA2005@dread.disaster.area e.g. My guess is if the dirty blocks in the page are highly fragmented, maybe it'd be better to writeback the whole page in an IO rather than individual blocks. At a very quick glance, the approach looks good to me.

This isn't XFS. Also 'set or clear' with a bool to indicate which to do is horrible style.

Why would we write back a block which isn't dirty?

I really don't think we can kill the uptodate bit. But what we can do is have on bitmap array (flex size as in your prep patches) and just alternating bits for uptodate and dirty.

commit 9dc55f1389f9 ("iomap: add support for sub-pagesize buffered I/O without buffer heads") replace the per-block structure buffer_head with the per-page structure iomap_page. However, iomap_page can't track the dirty state of sub pages, which will cause performance issue since sub pages will be writeback even if they are not dirty. For example, if block size is 4k and page size is 64k: dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile bs=4k count=16 oflag=sync With buffer_head implementation, the above dd cmd will writeback 4k in each round. However, with iomap_page implementation, the range of writeback in each round is from the start of the page to the end offset we just wrote. Thus add support to track dirty state for sub pages in iomap_page.
