From 10888129783cc8daeeb9c47942876b917532b58c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Javier González Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2017 17:56:37 +0200 Subject: lightnvm: pblk: schedule if data is not ready MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When user threads place data into the write buffer, they reserve space and do the memory copy out of the lock. As a consequence, when the write thread starts persisting data, there is a chance that it is not copied yet. In this case, avoid polling, and schedule before retrying.
