From ec53d1dbb3ca960e7b552397613358ba1dbd12bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Chinner Date: Tue, 20 Jul 2010 17:52:59 +1000 Subject: xfs: don't block on buffer read errors xfs_buf_read() fails to detect dispatch errors before attempting to wait on sychronous IO. If there was an error, it will get stuck forever, waiting for an I/O that was never started. Make sure the error is detected correctly. Further, such a failure can leave locked pages in the page cache which will cause a later operation to hang on the page. Ensure that we correctly process pages in the buffers when we get a dispatch error.
