[PATCH 0/4] ext4: Fix deadlock during page writeback

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

 



Hello,

the first patch in the series fixes the deadlock during page writeback
spotted by Eryu. Other three patches somewhat improve the lockdep
instrumentations of transactions in JBD2. Originally I though we would
be able to catch the writeback deadlock with them but sadly that is not
the case as page locks / page writeback bits are not tracked by lockdep.
But still the result looks nicer and has more coverage so I think it is
worth it.
