That was the > other reason for the change. Ah good to know that reason. However we cannot wait for ongoing WRITEs for unlimited time or pages, otherwise nr_unstable goes up and squeeze nr_dirty and nr_writeback to zero, and stall the cp process for a long time, as demonstrated by the trace (more reasoning in previous email). > > I do, however, agree that the above can provide a nice heuristic for the > WB_SYNC_NONE case (minus the -EAGAIN error). Mind if I integrate it? Sure, thank you. Here is the trace I collected with this patch. The pipeline is often stalled and throughput is poor..
