[PATCH 5/5] [RFC] xfs: don't commit the first deferred transaction without intents

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

 



From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx>

If the first operation in a string of defer ops has no intents,
then there is no reason to commit it before running the first call
to xfs_defer_finish_one(). This allows the defer ops to be used
effectively for non-intent based operations without requiring an
unnecessary extra transaction commit when first called.

This fixes a regression in per-attribute modification transaction
count when delayed attributes are not being used.
