Subject: [RFC 1/1] pmem: Add cond_resched() in bio_for_each_segment loop in pmem_make_request
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2020 14:15:18 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <0d96e2481f292de2cda8828b03d5121004308759.1596011292.git.riteshh@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

For systems which do not have CONFIG_PREEMPT set and
if there is a heavy multi-threaded load/store operation happening
on pmem + sometimes along with device latencies, softlockup warnings like
this could trigger. This was seen on Power where pagesize is 64K.

To avoid softlockup, this patch adds a cond_resched() in this path.
