![]() In certain situations the background CIL push can be indefinitely delayed. While we have workarounds from the obvious cases now, it doesn't solve the underlying issue. This issue is that there is no upper limit on the CIL where we will either force or wait for a background push to start, hence allowing the CIL to grow without bound until it consumes all log space. To fix this, add a new wait queue to the CIL which allows background pushes to wait for the CIL context to be switched out. This happens when the push starts, so it will allow us to block incoming transaction commit completion until the push has started. This will only affect processes that are running modifications, and only when the CIL threshold has been significantly overrun. This has no apparent impact on performance, and doesn't even trigger until over 45 million inodes had been created in a 16-way fsmark test on a 2GB log. That was limiting at 64MB of log space used, so the active CIL size is only about 3% of the total log in that case. The concurrent removal of those files did not trigger the background sleep at all.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
