Subject: ext4: for committing inode, make ext4_fc_track_inode wait
X-Git-Tag: v6.16-rc1~139^2~50
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4d3266463ed06af2916b306bdb0ebd647726ba49;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

ext4: for committing inode, make ext4_fc_track_inode wait

If the inode that's being requested to track using ext4_fc_track_inode
is being committed, then wait until the inode finishes the
commit. Also, add calls to ext4_fc_track_inode at the right places.
With this patch, now calling ext4_reserve_inode_write() results in
inode being tracked for next fast commit. This ensures that by the
time ext4_reserve_inode_write() returns, it is ready to be modified
and won't be committed until the corresponding handle is open.

A subtle lock ordering requirement with i_data_sem (which is
documented in the code) requires that ext4_fc_track_inode() be called
before grabbing i_data_sem. So, this patch also adds explicit
ext4_fc_track_inode() calls in places where i_data_sem grabbed.
