552 * per-inode. While the support for concurrent write sharing of an inode

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