Subject: [PATCH RT 06/12] fs, jbd: pull your plug when waiting for space
Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2012 11:31:21 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120717153243.850568822@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20120717153115.606116459@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0006-fs-jbd-pull-your-plug-when-waiting-for-space.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1002 bytes --]

From: Mike Galbraith <mgalbraith@suse.de>

With an -rt kernel, and a heavy sync IO load, tasks can jam
up on journal locks without unplugging, which can lead to
terminal IO starvation.  Unplug and schedule when waiting for space.
