[PATCH 28/35] nfs: writeback pages wait queue

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

 



The generic writeback routines are departing from congestion_wait()
in preference of get_request_wait(), aka. waiting on the block queues.

Introduce the missing writeback wait queue for NFS, otherwise its
writeback pages will grow out of control, exhausting all PG_dirty pages.
