Revision be07c4ed4043ab8c26f222348136141335e47a2f authored by Duane Griffin on 22 October 2008, 21:15:03 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 23 October 2008, 15:55:02 UTC
The __log_wait_for_space function sits in a loop checkpointing transactions until there is sufficient space free in the journal. However, if there are no transactions to be processed (e.g. because the free space calculation is wrong due to a corrupted filesystem) it will never progress. Check for space being required when no transactions are outstanding and abort the journal instead of endlessly looping.
