The big dirty file is actually still sitting in\ns_more_io.  We cannot simply splice s_more_io back to s_io as soon as s_io\nbecomes empty, and let the loop in generic_sync_sb_inodes() continue: this\nmay starve newly expired inodes in s_dirty.  It is also not an option to\ndraw inodes from both s_more_io and s_dirty, an let the loop go on: this\nmight lead to live locks, and might also starve other superblocks in sync\ntime(well kupdate may still starve some superblocks, that\u0027s another bug).\n\nWe have to return when a full scan of s_io completes.  So nr_to_write \u003e 0\ndoes not necessarily mean that \"all data are written\".  This patch\nintroduces a flag writeback_control.more_io to indicate that more io should\nbe done.  With it the big dirty file no longer has to wait for the next\nkupdate invokation 5s later.\n\nIn sync_sb_inodes() we only set more_io on super_blocks we actually\nvisited.  This avoids the interaction between two pdflush deamons.\n\nAlso in __sync_single_inode() we don\u0027t blindly keep requeuing the io if the\nfilesystem cannot progress.

      "message": "mm: per device dirty threshold\n\nScale writeback cache per backing device, proportional to its writeout speed.\n\nBy decoupling the BDI dirty thresholds a number of problems we currently have\nwill go away, namely:\n\n - mutual interference starvation (for any number of BDIs);\n - deadlocks with stacked BDIs (loop, FUSE and local NFS mounts).\n\nIt might be that all dirty pages are for a single BDI while other BDIs are\nidling. By giving each BDI a \u0027fair\u0027 share of the dirty limit, each one can have\ndirty pages outstanding and make progress.\n\nA global threshold also creates a deadlock for stacked BDIs; when A writes to\nB, and A generates enough dirty pages to get throttled, B will never start\nwriteback until the dirty pages go away. Again, by giving each BDI its own\n\u0027independent\u0027 dirty limit, this problem is avoided.\n\nSo the problem is to determine how to distribute the total dirty limit across\nthe BDIs fairly and efficiently. A DBI that has a large dirty limit but does\nnot have any dirty pages outstanding is a waste.\n\nWhat is done is to keep a floating proportion between the DBIs based on\nwriteback completions. This way faster/more active devices get a larger share\nthan slower/idle devices.\n\n[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix warnings]\n[hugh@veritas.com: Fix occasional hang when a task couldn\u0027t get out of balance_dirty_pages]\nSigned-off-by: Peter Zijlstra \u003ca.p.zijlstra@chello.nl\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Hugh Dickins \u003chugh@veritas.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n"

So, this adds LLONG_MAX to avoid nasty\n      things, and uses LLONG_MAX for range_end.\n\n    - All callers of -\u003ewritepages() sets range_start/end or range_cyclic.\n\n    - Fix updates of -\u003ewriteback_index. It seems already bit strange.\n      If it starts at 0 and ended by check of nr_to_write, this last\n      index may reduce chance to scan end of file.

Let the sysctl interface do\nthe conversions with full precision using clock_t_to_jiffies, instead of\ndoing overflow-sensitive on-the-fly conversions every time the values are\nused.\n\nCons: apparent precision loss if HZ is not a multiple of 100, because of\nconversion back and forth.  This is a common problem for all sysctl values\nthat use proc_dointvec_userhz_jiffies.  (There is only one other in-tree\nuse, in net/core/neighbour.c.)\n\nSigned-off-by: Bart Samwel \u003cbart@samwel.tk\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"
