* 1) Make fast commit atomic updates more fine grained. Today, a fast commit
|
||||
* eligible update must be protected within ext4_fc_start_update() and
|
||||
* ext4_fc_stop_update(). These routines are called at much higher
|
||||
* routines. This can be made more fine grained by combining with
|
||||
* ext4_journal_start().
|
||||
* 1) Fast commit's commit path locks the entire file system during fast
|
||||
* commit. This has significant performance penalty. Instead of that, we
|
||||
* should use ext4_fc_start/stop_update functions to start inode level
|
||||
* updates from ext4_journal_start/stop. Once we do that we can drop file
|
||||
* system locking during commit path.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* 2) Same above for ext4_fc_start_ineligible() and ext4_fc_stop_ineligible()
|
||||
*
|
||||
* 3) Handle more ineligible cases.
