From 61628a3f3a37af2bf25daf8e26fd6b76a78c4f76 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mingming Cao Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2008 19:27:31 -0400 Subject: ext4: Invert lock ordering of page_lock and transaction start in delalloc With the reverse locking, we need to start a transation before taking the page lock, so in ext4_da_writepages() we need to break the write-out into chunks, and restart the journal for each chunck to ensure the write-out fits in a single transaction. Updated patch from Aneesh Kumar K.V which fixes delalloc sync hang with journal lock inversion, and address the performance regression issue.
