[PATCH 4.9 23/88] NFS: Add a cond_resched() to nfs_commit_release_pages()

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

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7f1bda447c9bd48b415acedba6b830f61591601f upstream.

The commit list can get very large, and so we need a cond_resched()
in nfs_commit_release_pages() in order to ensure we don't hog the CPU
for excessive periods of time.
