If you return an error here, the data doesn't stay dirty or anything, and I think we want to ensure that that gets reported via fsync. I'd like to see us add better handling for retryable errors for stuff like ENOMEM or EAGAIN. I think this is the first step toward that though. Once we have more consistent handling of writeback errors in general, then we can start doing more interesting things with retryable errors. So yeah, I this is the right thing to do for now. > > > --- > > fs/fuse/file.c | 1 + > > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) > > > > diff --git a/fs/fuse/file.c b/fs/fuse/file.c > > index ec238fb5a584..07d0efcb050c 100644 > > --- a/fs/fuse/file.c > > +++ b/fs/fuse/file.c > > @@ -1669,6 +1669,7 @@ static int fuse_writepage_locked(struct page *page) > > err_free: > > fuse_request_free(req); > > err: > > + mapping_set_error(page->mapping, error); > > end_page_writeback(page); > > return error; > > } > > -- > > 2.9.3 > > > > -- Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
