Recently, Philip and Tsuji-san reported a problem of critical request
block caused by recovery process. I found a problematic behavior
purge_directory() of libsheepdog which can cause long stop of the main
thread. It would be a root cause of the problem. This patchset solves
it.
v2:
- use ordered workqueue
- reduce memory consumption caused by work queuing
Hitoshi Mitake (2):
lib: add an interface for registering workqueue for libsheepdog
lib: call rmdir(2) and unlink(2) in worker threads during purging
