[PATCH 3/3] mm: set mapping error when launder_pages fails

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

 



If launder_page fails, then we hit a problem writing back some inode
data. Ensure that we communicate that fact in a subsequent fsync since
another task could still have it open for write.
