[PATCH 04/15] reftable/stack: gracefully handle failed auto-compaction due to locks

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

 



Whenever we commit a new table to the reftable stack we will end up
invoking auto-compaction of the stack to keep the total number of tables
at bay. This auto-compaction may fail though in case at least one of the
tables which we are about to compact is locked. This is indicated by the
compaction function returning a positive value. We do not handle this
case though, and thus bubble that return value up the calling chain,
which will ultimately cause a failure.

Fix this bug by handling positive return values.
