[PATCH] dm crypt: retain write ordering

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

 



Hi

This is update "retain write ordering" patch that hopefully fixes the 
lockup.

Please test it in the situation where you saw performance degradation due 
to dm-crypt parallelization patches.



From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx>
    
Reorder outgoing write requests so they submitted in the same order they
were received in.
