[PATCH 4/5] nfs: handle multiple reqs in nfs_page_async_flush

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

 



Change nfs_find_and_lock_request so nfs_page_async_flush can handle multiple
requests in a page. There is only one request for a page the first time
nfs_page_async_flush is called, but if a write or commit fails, async_flush
is called again and there may be multiple requests associated with the page.
The solution is to merge all the requests in a page group into a single
request before calling nfs_pageio_add_request.

Rename nfs_find_and_lock_request to nfs_lock_and_join_requests and
change it to first lock all requests for the page, then cancel and merge
all subrequests into the head request.
