[PATCH 0/3] fixup work fixes

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

 



This series is to address a few issues with the fixup worker we hit in
production.

The first of this is a resend of

  Btrfs: keep pages dirty when using

I've cleaned this up based on the feedback and added a bunch more comments to
make it clear what is happening and why we're doing it.

The next patch is a cleanup that is made possible by the previous patch, again
to clear up the fixup workers job.

  btrfs: drop the -EBUSY case in __extent_writepage_io

And finally the deadlock fix that I submitted earlier.  I noticed while trying
to backport this onto our kernel that we had changed the error case with the
above patch from Chris, and actually we really, really need Chris's fix as well.
There is also a change in the error handling from v1 where we now set the page
error properly but only once we've locked the page and verified we're still
responsible for COW'ing the page.  Thanks,

Josef
