Subject: [PATCH] xfs: remove unecessary AIL push wakeups
Date: Fri, 13 Jan 2012 01:30:28 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120113013028.6802d878@ustc> (raw)


In commit 0030807c66("xfs: revert to using a kthread for AIL pushing"),
AIL pushing is revert back to use a kthread. But unfortunately, it
introduced a regression: there are unnecessary AIL push wakeups during
idle, ~20 wakeups/s. This change remove the wakeups by reverting a bit
more: set "tout" value as zero during idle.
