Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y 2/4] f2fs: add timeout in f2fs_enable_checkpoint()
Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2025 11:22:52 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251230162254.2306864-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251230162254.2306864-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Chao Yu <chao@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit 4bc347779698b5e67e1514bab105c2c083e55502 ]

During f2fs_enable_checkpoint() in remount(), if we flush a large
amount of dirty pages into slow device, it may take long time which
will block write IO, let's add a timeout machanism during dirty
pages flush to avoid long time block in f2fs_enable_checkpoint().
