Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Make task doing heavy writing killable
Date: Mon, 14 Nov 2011 12:10:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1321269030-6019-1-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz> (raw)
Hello,
these two patches aim at making task waiting in balance_dirty_pages()
killable. This is desirable because otherwise if filesystem stops accepting
writes (e.g. if device has been removed or other serious error condidion) we
have a task stuck in D state forever.
I'm not sure who should merge these two patches... Al, Fengguang?
Honza
