[PATCH] vfs/xfs: clean up cow mappings during fs data freeze

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

 



From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx>

As part of the fs freezing process, we want to free the copy-on-write
reservations after all the dirty data has been written to disk but prior
to freezing the filesystem.  Currently, only a sync_filesystem call is
hardwired into the VFS code, so provide a new callout, ->freeze_data, so
that filesystems can override with whatever behavior they want.

In the case of XFS, that behavior is "sync and then clean the cow
mappings".  This reduces the amount of recovery that must happen if the
system goes down while the fs is frozen.
