| Subject: | [PATCH 0/2] Fix a couple of random hangs. |
| From: | Dave Chinner <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> |

The first patch fixes a low memory hang where I/O completion processing triggers memory reclaim which hangs waiting for I/O completion. The trigger is unwritten extent conversion blocking completion of normal writes. The second fixes a log hang which results from excessive load; we update the push target after we go to sleep so if we are unlucky enough not to have a current push target far enough advanced we'll hang. |
