From: Sage Weil Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2009 22:38:44 +0000 (-0400) Subject: Btrfs: fix deadlock with free space handling and user transactions X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dd7e0b7b02ccff73b87032e20fc5b4f2c1cfcc14;p=linux-beck.git Btrfs: fix deadlock with free space handling and user transactions If an ioctl-initiated transaction is open, we can't force a commit during the free space checks in order to free up pinned extents or else we deadlock. Just ENOSPC instead. A more satisfying solution that reserves space for the entire user transaction up front is forthcoming...
