Hi Jan, is there any reason the ->quota_sync operations (which always ends up in dquot_quota_sync, or gfs2_quota_sync) is called before writing back the inodes? Given that writeback can perform allocations in filesystem not using ->page_mkwrite or at least cause delalloc conversions that seems like the wrong place to me. Even more so fixing the placement means we could just call dquot_quota_sync from ->sync_fs, similar how XFS does it's quota writeout, and thus avoiding the duplicate call to ->sync_fs from inside dquot_quota_sync, as well as getting rid of the abuse of the quotactl ops from VFS code. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
