[PATCH] Btrfs: avoid deadlocks during reservations in btrfs_truncate_block

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

 



From: Josef Bacik <jbacik@xxxxxx>

The new enospc code makes it possible to deadlock if we don't use
FLUSH_LIMIT during reservations inside a transaction.  This enforces
the correct flush type to avoid both deadlocks and assertions
