[PATCH 5.13 032/351] btrfs: dont block if we cant acquire the reclaim lock

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

 



From: Johannes Thumshirn <johannes.thumshirn@xxxxxxx>

commit 9cc0b837e14ae913581ec1ea6e979a738f71b0fd upstream.

If we can't acquire the reclaim_bgs_lock on block group reclaim, we
block until it is free. This can potentially stall for a long time.

While reclaim of block groups is necessary for a good user experience on
a zoned file system, there still is no need to block as it is best
effort only, just like when we're deleting unused block groups.
