[PATCH] Btrfs: drop locks before calling read_tree_block from get_old_root

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



get_old_root needs its lock on the root node only to clone that buffer.
However, when we call read_tree_block, we know already that we're not
going to clone the root node. Thus we can safely unlock before, to avoid
issues where read_tree_block makes potentially sleeping allocations.

Thanks for pointing that out, liubo!

I added this additional patch on top of my patch staple at:

    git://git.jan-o-sch.net/btrfs-unstable for-chris

I also made a second branch, because this last commit actually fixes
that's introduced by one of the patches in the patch set. So I folded
it into the respective commit:

    git://git.jan-o-sch.net/btrfs-unstable for-chris-fixed

I made sure that the resulting code is the same.

Chris: please pull either one for rc3.

-Jan
