[PATCH 0/3][V2] Provide accounting for dirty metadata

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

 



Here is my updated set of patches for providing a way for fs'es to do their own
accounting for their dirty metadata pages.  The changes since V1 include

-Split the accounting + ->write_metadata patches out into their own patches.
-Added a few more account_metadata* helpers that I hadn't thought about
previously.
-Changed the bdi->sb_list to bdi->dirty_sb_list.  This is to avoid confusion
about the purpose of the list.  I do a splice of this list when processing it as
we have to drop the list lock and I didn't want to worry about umounts screwing
up the list while we were writing metadata.
-Added the dirty metadata counter to the various places we output those counters
(meminfo, oom messages, etc).

I've also actually changed btrfs to use these interfaces and have been testing
that code for almost a week now and have fixed up the various problems that
happend with V1 of this code.  Thanks,

Josef
