[PATCH 0/2 v4] writeback: Improve busyloop prevention and inode requeueing

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

 



  Hello,

  this is a fourth version of my patch series improving busyloop prevention in
writeback code and then replacing some redirty_tail() calls with requeue_io()
to avoid postponing writeback for too long.

  Changes since v3:
* Improved busyloop prevention to abort work which cannot make progress if we
are retrying for too long or if there is some other work to do.
* Increased maximum sleep time in the busy loop to avoid eating CPU power
unnecessarily.
* Removed wbc->pages_skipped check

  Thanks to Fengguang for review, testing and good suggestions.
