[PATCH 34/94] ext4: disable synchronous transaction batching if max_batch_time==0

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

 



From: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx>

The mount manpage says of the max_batch_time option,

	This optimization can be turned off entirely
	by setting max_batch_time to 0.

But the code doesn't do that.  So fix the code to do
that.
