[PATCH] Btrfs: add another missing end_page_writeback on submit_extent_page failure

Show all headers | View raw

This is actually inspired by Filipe's patch(55e3bd2e0c2e1).

When submit_extent_page() in __extent_writepage_io() fails,
Btrfs misses clearing a writeback bit of the failed page.
This causes the false under-writeback page.
Then, another sync task hangs in filemap_fdatawait_range(),
because it waits the false under-writeback page.

__extent_writepage_io()
  ret = submit_extent_page() // fail

  if (ret)
    SetPageError(page)
    // miss clearing the writeback bit

                                sync()
                                  ...
                                  filemap_fdatawait_range()
                                    wait_on_page_writeback(page);
                                    // wait the false under-writeback page
