[PATCH] dm log writes: make sure the log super sectors are written in order

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

 



Currently, although we submit super bios in log-write thread orderly
(the super.nr_entries is incremented by each logged entry), the
submit_bio() cannot make sure that each super sector is written to log
device in order. So the submitting bio of each super sector may be
out-of-order, and then the final nr_entries maybe small than the real
entries submitted.

This problem can be reproduced by the xfstests generic/455 with ext4,
which may complained below after running the test:

  QA output created by 455
 -Silence is golden
 +mark 'end' does not exist

This patch serialize submitting super secotrs to make sure each super
sectors are written to log disk in order.
