Subject: [PATCH v2 3/5] mm: Convert writeback BUG to WARN_ON
Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2020 08:46:04 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200416154606.306-4-willy@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200416154606.306-1-willy@infradead.org>
From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@infradead.org>
If this BUG() ever triggers, we'll have a dead system with no particular
information. Dumping the page will give us a fighting chance of debugging
the problem, and I think it's safe for us to just continue if we try
to clear the writeback bit on a page which already has the writeback
bit clear.
