I keep seeing this predicate, maybe it should go into fsverity.h as a
helper function with the comment about mmap that I was muttering about
in the previous patch?
Or maybe a "get verity info for given folio index" helper?
/*
* Grab the fsverity context needed to verify the contents of the folio.
*
* <Big fat comment from before, about mmap and whatnot>
*/
static inline struct fsverity_info *vi
fsverity_folio_info(const struct folio *folio)
{
struct inode *inode = folio->mapping->host;
if (folio->index < DIV_ROUND_UP(inode->i_size, PAGE_SIZE))
return fsverity_get_info(inode);
return NULL;
}
then ext4 just does:
vi = fsverity_folio_info(folio);
if (vi)
fsverity_readahead(vi, folio, nr_pages);
Hrm?
