From a200ee182a016752464a12cb2e8762e48254bb09 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Mon, 8 Oct 2007 18:54:37 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mm: set_page_dirty_balance() vs ->page_mkwrite() All the current page_mkwrite() implementations also set the page dirty. Which results in the set_page_dirty_balance() call to _not_ call balance, because the page is already found dirty. This allows us to dirty a _lot_ of pages without ever hitting balance_dirty_pages(). Not good (tm). Force a balance call if ->page_mkwrite() was successful. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- Reading git-format-patch failed
