Subject: [PATCH 04/10] lightnvm: pblk: schedule if data is not ready
Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2017 17:56:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1498838203-21539-5-git-send-email-javier@cnexlabs.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1498838203-21539-1-git-send-email-javier@cnexlabs.com>

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.
