[PATCH 20/26] ext4: Protect extent conversion after DIO with i_dio_count

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

 



Make sure extent conversion after DIO happens while i_dio_count is still
elevated so that inode_dio_wait() waits until extent conversion is done.
This removes the need for explicit waiting for extent conversion in some
cases.
