[PATCH 1/2] fs: avoid softlockups in s_inodes iterators

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

 



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.
