From 1fdeaea4d92c69fb9f871a787af6ad00f32eeea7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Darrick J. Wong" Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2019 08:49:36 -0700 Subject: xfs: abort unaligned nowait directio early Dave Chinner noticed that xfs_file_dio_aio_write returns EAGAIN without dropping the IOLOCK when its deciding not to wait, which means that we leak the IOLOCK there. Since we now make unaligned directio always wait, we have the opportunity to bail out before trying to take the lock, which should reduce the overhead of this never-gonna-work case considerably while also solving the dropped lock problem.
