We have a complex loop design for find_free_extent(), that has different behavior for each loop, some even includes new chunk allocation. Instead of putting such a long code into find_free_extent() and makes it harder to read, just extract them into find_free_extent_update_loop(). With all the cleanups, the main find_free_extent() should be pretty barebone: find_free_extent() |- Iterate through all block groups | |- Get a valid block group | |- Try to do clustered allocation in that block group | |- Try to do unclustered allocation in that block group | |- Check if the result is valid | | |- If valid, then exit | |- Jump to next block group | |- Push harder to find free extents |- If not found, re-iterate all block groups Signed-off-by: Qu Wenruo <wqu@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Su Yue <suy.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> [ copy callchain from changelog to function comment ] Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
