Best approach to update all entries in a list that is paginated?
I have a list which is paginated in a webpage. It also has a function to select the number of entries per page.
A bulk update on all is required.
What would be the best approach to this? My concern is that a user would doubt if we refer to the current page or to the whole list.
A confirmation window with details or an info message to detail it would suffice?
This is how it looks for now:

Allow the user to see how many are selected, and give them the option to select the whole data set beyond the pagination.
Gmail has this pattern. Once you select 'All' via the checkbox, a message appears stating:
- How many are currently selected
- A link with the number of the whole data set, and the ability to select the entire set

Add a button to the bottom where the other page controls are.
Also, if users are doing mass changes often, consider making a separate tool for it.
