[RFC PATCH 18/18] jffs2: Use the new API for a sleep with a timeout

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

 



It allows to maintain the checks for freezing, parking, and signal
handling on a single place.

Note that the sleep with the timeout is used here to slow down
the progress a bit. It does not matter if we do it before or after
calling jffs2_garbage_collect_pass().
