[PATCH 0/2] xfs log recovery delay instrumentation

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

 



Hi all,

Here's a couple patches to add the log recovery delay instrumentation
required for reproducing the log recovery buf race problem uncovered by
Alex:

It looked easier to dump this tunable in /proc, but it seems like we
want to move away from adding more things there. This series defines a
generic sys/fs/xfs/debug location to serve a similar purpose and exports
the log recovery delay tunable therein.

The original problem is now easily reproduced with a 10s or so log
recovery delay and the xfstests test I posted the other day:

One thing that comes to mind as I write this is whether it might be a
good idea to only export this debug subdirectory for DEBUG enabled
kernels. Thoughts? Any other thoughts, reviews or flames are appreciated
as well.

Brian
