Anything that walks all inodes on sb->s_inodes list without rescheduling risks softlockups. Previous efforts were made in 2 functions, see: c27d82f fs/drop_caches.c: avoid softlockups in drop_pagecache_sb() ac05fbb inode: don't softlockup when evicting inodes but there hasn't been an audit of all walkers, so do that now. This also consistently moves the cond_resched() calls to the bottom of each loop in cases where it already exists. One loop remains: remove_dquot_ref(), because I'm not quite sure how to deal with that one w/o taking the i_lock. Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx>
Whoops, cc: Jan & Josef as on original, sorry.
