Miklos Szeredi0ea97182007-05-10 22:22:51 -07001040 * If a page is already under I/O, write_cache_pages() skips it, even
David Howells811d7362006-08-29 19:06:09 +01001041 * if it's dirty. This is desirable behaviour for memory-cleaning writeback,
1042 * but it is INCORRECT for data-integrity system calls such as fsync(). fsync()
1043 * and msync() need to guarantee that all the data which was dirty at the time
1044 * the call was made get new I/O started against them. If wbc->sync_mode is
1045 * WB_SYNC_ALL then we were called for data integrity and we must wait for
1046 * existing IO to complete.
Jan Karaf446daae2010-08-09 17:19:12 -07001047 *
1048 * To avoid livelocks (when other process dirties new pages), we first tag
1049 * pages which should be written back with TOWRITE tag and only then start
1050 * writing them. For data-integrity sync we have to be careful so that we do
1051 * not miss some pages (e.g., because some other process has cleared TOWRITE
1052 * tag we set). The rule we follow is that TOWRITE tag can be cleared only
1053 * by the process clearing the DIRTY tag (and submitting the page for IO).
