Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: try grabbing node page lock aggressively in sync scenario
Date: Wed, 4 Jul 2018 18:04:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180704100410.20777-1-yuchao0@huawei.com> (raw)

In synchronous scenario, like in checkpoint(), we are going to flush
dirty node pages to device synchronously, we can easily failed
writebacking node page due to trylock_page() failure, especially in
condition of intensive lock competition, which can cause long latency
of checkpoint(). So let's use lock_page() in synchronous scenario to
avoid this issue.
