544 * As concurrent write sharing of an inode is expected to be very rare and

546 * the usefulness of such sharing, cgroup writeback tracks ownership
547 * per-inode. While the support for concurrent write sharing of an inode

549 * different points in time is a lot more common, and, more importantly,
550 * charging only by first-use can too readily lead to grossly incorrect
551 * behaviors (single foreign page can lead to gigabytes of writeback to be
552 * incorrectly attributed).
554 * To resolve this issue, cgroup writeback detects the majority dirtier of
555 * an inode and transfers the ownership to it. To avoid unnnecessary
556 * oscillation, the detection mechanism keeps track of history and gives
557 * out the switch verdict only if the foreign usage pattern is stable over
558 * a certain amount of time and/or writeback attempts.
560 * On each writeback attempt, @wbc tries to detect the majority writer
561 * using Boyer-Moore majority vote algorithm. In addition to the byte
562 * count from the majority voting, it also counts the bytes written for the
563 * current wb and the last round's winner wb (max of last round's current
564 * wb, the winner from two rounds ago, and the last round's majority
565 * candidate). Keeping track of the historical winner helps the algorithm
566 * to semi-reliably detect the most active writer even when it's not the
567 * absolute majority.
569 * Once the winner of the round is determined, whether the winner is
570 * foreign or not and how much IO time the round consumed is recorded in
