Umm... AFAICS, this pag = xfs_perag_get(mp, XFS_INO_TO_AGNO(mp, ip->i_ino)); spin_lock(&pag->pag_ici_lock); spin_lock(&ip->i_flags_lock);
trace_xfs_inode_set_reclaimable(ip); ip->i_flags &= ~(XFS_NEED_INACTIVE | XFS_INACTIVATING); ip->i_flags |= XFS_IRECLAIMABLE; xfs_perag_set_inode_tag(pag, XFS_INO_TO_AGINO(mp, ip->i_ino), XFS_ICI_RECLAIM_TAG);
spin_unlock(&ip->i_flags_lock); spin_unlock(&pag->pag_ici_lock); xfs_perag_put(pag); in the end of xfs_inodegc_set_reclaimable() could go into ->free_inode() just fine. It's xfs_inodegc_queue() I'm not sure about - the part about flush_work() in there...
I'm not familiar with that code; could you point me towards some docs/old postings/braindump/whatnot?
