600 * wbc_attach_and_unlock_inode(). Can be called under any context.
601 *
602 * As concurrent write sharing of an inode is expected to be very rare and
603 * memcg only tracks page ownership on first-use basis severely confining
604 * the usefulness of such sharing, cgroup writeback tracks ownership
605 * per-inode. While the support for concurrent write sharing of an inode
606 * is deemed unnecessary, an inode being written to by different cgroups at
607 * different points in time is a lot more common, and, more importantly,
608 * charging only by first-use can too readily lead to grossly incorrect
609 * behaviors (single foreign page can lead to gigabytes of writeback to be
610 * incorrectly attributed).
611 *
612 * To resolve this issue, cgroup writeback detects the majority dirtier of
613 * an inode and transfers the ownership to it. To avoid unnnecessary
614 * oscillation, the detection mechanism keeps track of history and gives
615 * out the switch verdict only if the foreign usage pattern is stable over
616 * a certain amount of time and/or writeback attempts.
617 *
618 * On each writeback attempt, @wbc tries to detect the majority writer
619 * using Boyer-Moore majority vote algorithm. In addition to the byte
620 * count from the majority voting, it also counts the bytes written for the
621 * current wb and the last round's winner wb (max of last round's current
622 * wb, the winner from two rounds ago, and the last round's majority
623 * candidate). Keeping track of the historical winner helps the algorithm
624 * to semi-reliably detect the most active writer even when it's not the
625 * absolute majority.
626 *
627 * Once the winner of the round is determined, whether the winner is
628 * foreign or not and how much IO time the round consumed is recorded in
629 * inode->i_wb_frn_history. If the amount of recorded foreign IO time is
630 * over a certain threshold, the switch verdict is given.

2106 * @flags: what kind of dirty (i.e. I_DIRTY_SYNC)
2107 *
2108 * Mark an inode as dirty. Callers should use mark_inode_dirty or
2109 * mark_inode_dirty_sync.
2110 *
2111 * Put the inode on the super block's dirty list.
2112 *
2113 * CAREFUL! We mark it dirty unconditionally, but move it onto the
2114 * dirty list only if it is hashed or if it refers to a blockdev.
2115 * If it was not hashed, it will never be added to the dirty list
2116 * even if it is later hashed, as it will have been marked dirty already.
2117 *
2118 * In short, make sure you hash any inodes _before_ you start marking
2119 * them dirty.
2120 *
2121 * Note that for blockdevs, inode->dirtied_when represents the dirtying time of
2122 * the block-special inode (/dev/hda1) itself. And the ->dirtied_when field of
2123 * the kernel-internal blockdev inode represents the dirtying time of the
2124 * blockdev's pages. This is why for I_DIRTY_PAGES we always use
2125 * page->mapping->host, so the page-dirtying time is recorded in the internal
2126 * blockdev inode.
