Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fs: xfs: use BUG_ON if writepage call comes from direct reclaim
Date: Tue,  3 Jul 2018 12:11:19 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1530591079-33813-2-git-send-email-yang.shi@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1530591079-33813-1-git-send-email-yang.shi@linux.alibaba.com>

direct reclaim doesn't write out filesystem page, only kswapd could do
this. So, if it is called from direct relaim, it is definitely a bug.

And, Mel Gorman mentioned "Ultimately, this will be a BUG_ON." in commit
94054fa3fca1fd78db02cb3d68d5627120f0a1d4 ("xfs: warn if direct reclaim
tries to writeback pages"),

It has been many years since that commit, so it should be safe to
elevate WARN_ON to BUG_ON now.
