Subject: [GIT PULL] writeback fixes and cleanups
Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2009 21:49:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090915194955.GV23126@kernel.dk> (raw)
Hi,
This should conclude the major updates to the previous writeback
inclusion, and has a bunch of must have fixes from Nick as well. So I
think we should include this sooner rather than later, should also fix
Ingo's bug report.
git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block.git writeback
Christoph Hellwig (1):
writeback: merely wakeup flusher thread if work allocation fails for WB_SYNC_NONE
Jens Axboe (11):
fs: remove bdev->bd_inode_backing_dev_info
writeback: get rid of wbc->for_writepages
writeback: make wb_writeback() take an argument structure
Assign bdi in super_block
writeback: only use bdi_writeback_all() for WB_SYNC_NONE writeout
writeback: use RCU to protect bdi_list
writeback: inline allocation failure handling in bdi_alloc_queue_work()
writeback: separate starting of sync vs opportunistic writeback
writeback: splice dirty inode entries to default bdi on bdi_destroy()
writeback: add comments to bdi_work structure
writeback: use schedule_timeout_interruptible()
Nick Piggin (4):
writeback: remove smp_mb(), it's not needed with list_add_tail_rcu()
writeback: improve scalability of bdi writeback work queues
writeback: Fix bdi use after free in wb_work_complete()
writeback: fix possible bdi writeback refcounting problem
