[PATCH 7/8] btrfs: be more explicit about allowed flush states

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

 



For FLUSH_LIMIT flushers (think evict, truncate) we can deadlock when
running delalloc because we may be holding a tree lock.  We can also
deadlock with delayed refs rsv's that are running via the committing
mechanism.  The only safe operations for FLUSH_LIMIT is to run the
delayed operations and to allocate chunks, everything else has the
potential to deadlock.  Future proof this by explicitly specifying the
states that FLUSH_LIMIT is allowed to use.  This will keep us from
introducing bugs later on when adding new flush states.
