Saveliev Date: Thu, 7 Dec 2006 04:39:12 +0000 (-0800) Subject: [PATCH] reiserfs: do not add save links for O_DIRECT writes X-Git-Tag: v2.6.20-rc1~145^2^2~96 X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c55747682e938c57a9a859d3b26f2c4c83cea011;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git [PATCH] reiserfs: do not add save links for O_DIRECT writes We add a save link for O_DIRECT writes to protect the i_size against the crashes before we actually finish the I/O. If we hit an -ENOSPC in aops->prepare_write(), we would do a truncate() to release the blocks which might have got initialized. Now the truncate would add another save link for the same inode causing a reiserfs panic for having multiple save links for the same inode. Signed-off-by: Vladimir V.
