Subject: [PATCH 1/6] xfs: remove nonblocking mode from xfs_vm_writepage
Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2016 17:45:41 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1455173146-19535-2-git-send-email-david@fromorbit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1455173146-19535-1-git-send-email-david@fromorbit.com>

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

Remove the nonblocking optimisation done for mapping lookups during
writeback. It's not clear that leaving a hole in the writeback range
just because we couldn't get a lock is really a win, as it makes us
do another small random IO later on rather than a large sequential
IO now.

As this gets in the way of sane error handling later on, just remove
for the moment and we can re-introduce an equivalent optimisation in
future if we see problems due to extent map lock contention.
