From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> Source kernel commit: c1e0f8e6fb060b23b6f1b82eb4265983f7d271f8 The btree bulkloading code calls xfs_buf_delwri_queue_here when it has finished formatting a new btree block and wants to queue it to be written to disk. Once the new btree root has been committed, the blocks (and hence the buffers) will be accessible to the rest of the filesystem. Mark each new buffer as DONE when adding it to the delwri list so that the next btree traversal can skip reloading the contents from disk. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
