Subject: [PATCH 0/2 RFC v3] Livelock avoidance for data integrity writeback
Date: Fri,  4 Jun 2010 20:47:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1275677231-15662-1-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz> (raw)


  Hi,

  I've revived my patches to implement livelock avoidance for data integrity
writes. Due to some concerns whether tagging of pages before writeout cannot
be too costly to use for WB_SYNC_NONE mode (where we stop after nr_to_write
pages) I've changed the patch to use page tagging only in WB_SYNC_ALL mode
where we are sure that we write out all the tagged pages. Later, we can think
about using tagging for livelock avoidance for WB_SYNC_NONE mode as well...
  As always comments are welcome.

                                                                        Honza

PS: I'm sorry for sending this twice. I've screwed up the list address in the
first posting.
