Subject: [PATCH 13/33] xfs: return -EAGAIN from xfs_reflink_allocate_cow for all allocation cases
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 20:01:57 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260729100629.1943710-14-dgc@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260729100629.1943710-1-dgc@kernel.org>
Consolidate the -EAGAIN transaction check for both COW hole and
delalloc allocation paths. Both cases require a transaction to
proceed, so lift the *tpp == NULL check above both branches and
return -EAGAIN from a single point.
This activates the retry loop for the delalloc case, which was
previously handled by cycling the ILOCK internally in
xfs_reflink_fill_delalloc().
