| |
Hi Linus,
My for-linus branch:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs.git for-linus
Has a fix for a long standing deadlock that we've been trying to nail down for a while. It ended up being a bad interaction with the fair reader/writer locks and the order btrfs reacquires locks in the btree.
Chris Mason (1) commits (+25/-15): btrfs: fix lockups from btrfs_clear_path_blocking
