    xfs: introduce XFS_BMAPI_STACK_SWITCH · 326c0355
    Dave Chinner 提交于
    Certain allocation paths through xfs_bmapi_write() are in situations
    where we have limited stack available. These are almost always in
    the buffered IO writeback path when convertion delayed allocation
    extents to real extents.
    
    The current stack switch occurs for userdata allocations, which
    means we also do stack switches for preallocation, direct IO and
    unwritten extent conversion, even those these call chains have never
    been implicated in a stack overrun.
    
    Hence, let's target just the single stack overun offended for stack
    switches. To do that, introduce a XFS_BMAPI_STACK_SWITCH flag that
    the caller can pass xfs_bmapi_write() to indicate it should switch
    stacks if it needs to do allocation.
