Re: [PATCH 03/12] xfs: always attach iflush_done and simplify error handling

On 4/17/20 8:08 AM, Brian Foster wrote:
The inode flush code has several layers of error handling between
the inode and cluster flushing code. If the inode flush fails before
acquiring the backing buffer, the inode flush is aborted. If the
cluster flush fails, the current inode flush is aborted and the
cluster buffer is failed to handle the initial inode and any others
that might have been attached before the error.

Since xfs_iflush() is the only caller of xfs_iflush_cluser(), the
error handling between the two can be condensed in the top-level
function. If we update xfs_iflush_int() to attach the item
completion handler to the buffer first, any errors that occur after
the first call to xfs_iflush_int() can be handled with a buffer
I/O failure.

Lift the error handling from xfs_iflush_cluster() into xfs_iflush()
and consolidate with the existing error handling. This also replaces
the need to release the buffer because failing the buffer with
XBF_ASYNC drops the current reference.

Hmm, I can't find where this unlock moved? Is it not needed anymore? I think I followed the rest of it though.
