Btrfs: fix heavy delalloc related deadlock
I added a patch where we started taking the ordered operations mutex when we waited on ordered extents. We need this because we splice the list and process it, so if a flusher came in during this scenario it would think the list was empty and we'd usually get an early ENOSPC. The problem with this is that this lock is used in transaction committing. So we end up with something like this Transaction commit -> wait on writers Delalloc flusher -> run_ordered_operations (holds mutex) ->wait for filemap-flush to do its thing flush task -> cow_file_range ->wait on btrfs_join_transaction because we're commiting some other task -> commit_transaction because we notice trans->transaction->flush is set -> run_ordered_operations (hang on mutex) We need to disentangle the ordered operations flushing from the delalloc flushing, since they are separate things. This solves the deadlock issue I was seeing. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@fusionio.com>
