[PATCH RFC v2 3/5] btrfs: Handle pending changes in btrfs_freeze().

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

 



Before the patch, btrfs_freeze() does not start a transaction if there
is pending changes but no transaction is running.

This will lead to deadlock if the fs is frozen but there are pending
changes, since sync_fs will start a transaction with s_umount mutex,
blocked by frozen fs. And later unfreeze will wait sync_fs to release
the s_umount mutex.

This patch will ensure the frozen fs from having pending changes, except
some one use sysfs interfaces to create pending changes again.
