Anyway I can add > the check with your comment in the next version. xfs_trans_alloc is called to allocate a transaction. We set _NOFS and save the old flags (which don't contain _NOFS) to this transaction. thread logs some changes and calls xfs_trans_roll. xfs_trans_roll calls xfs_trans_dup to duplicate the old transaction. xfs_trans_dup allocates a new transaction, which sets PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS and saves the current context flags (in which _NOFS is set) in the new transaction. xfs_trans_roll then commits the old transaction xfs_trans_commit frees the old transaction xfs_trans_free restores the old context (which didn't have _NOFS) and now we've dropped NOFS incorrectly now we move on with the new transaction, but in the wrong NOFS mode. note that this becomes a lot more obvious once you start fiddling with current->journal_info in the last patch. --D > > > > > > + > > > trace_xfs_trans_free(tp, _RET_IP_); > > > if (!(tp->t_flags & XFS_TRANS_NO_WRITECOUNT)) > > > sb_end_intwrite(tp->t_mountp->m_super); > > > @@ -153,9 +156,6 @@ xfs_trans_reserve( > > > int error = 0; > > > bool rsvd = (tp->t_flags & XFS_TRANS_RESERVE) != 0; > > > > > > - /* Mark this thread as being in a transaction */ > > > - xfs_trans_context_set(tp); > > > - > > > /* > > > * Attempt to reserve the needed disk blocks by decrementing > > > * the number needed from the number available.
