This was # problematic for PostgreSQL which offloads fsync calls to a completely # separate process from the DB writers. # # This patch restores that ability. If the errseq_t value in the inode # does not have the SEEN flag set, then we just return 0 for the sample. # That ensures that any recorded error is always delivered at least # once. # # Note that we might still lose the error if the inode gets evicted from # the cache before anything can reopen it, but that was the case before # errseq_t was merged. At LSF/MM we had some discussion about keeping # inodes with unreported writeback errors around in the cache for longer # (possibly indefinitely), but that's really a separate problem" # # * tag 'errseq-v4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux: # errseq: Always report a writeback error once # < /opt/cross/kisskb/br-sparc64-full-2016.08-613-ge98b4dd/bin/sparc64-linux-gcc --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 fff75eb2a08c2ac96404a2d79685668f3cf5a7a3 # < make -s -j 20 ARCH=sparc64 O=/kisskb/build/linus_sparc64-allnoconfig_sparc64 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/br-sparc64-full-2016.08-613-ge98b4dd/bin/sparc64-linux- allnoconfig WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF Depends on [n]: COMPAT [=y] && BINFMT_ELF [=n] Selected by [y]: - COMPAT [=y] && SPARC64 [=y] # make -s -j 20 ARCH=sparc64 O=/kisskb/build/linus_sparc64-allnoconfig_sparc64 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/br-sparc64-full-2016.08-613-ge98b4dd/bin/sparc64-linux- WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF Depends on [n]: COMPAT [=y] && BINFMT_ELF [=n] Selected by [y]: - COMPAT [=y] && SPARC64 [=y] WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF Depends on [n]: COMPAT [=y] && BINFMT_ELF [=n] Selected by [y]: - COMPAT [=y] && SPARC64 [=y] kernel: arch/sparc/boot/image is ready kernel: arch/sparc/boot/zImage is ready Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/linus_sparc64-allnoconfig_sparc64 # Build took: 0:00:21.312624
