[PATCH 3/4] ext4: endless truncate due to nonlocked dio readers

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

 



If we have enough aggressive DIO readers, truncate will wait
forever inside inode_dio_wait(). It is reasonable to disable
nonlock DIO read optimization during truncate.
