646 * xfs_trans_ail_update - bulk AIL insertion operation.
648 * @xfs_trans_ail_update takes an array of log items that all need to be
649 * positioned at the same LSN in the AIL. If an item is not in the AIL, it will
650 * be added. Otherwise, it will be repositioned by removing it and re-adding
651 * it to the AIL. If we move the first item in the AIL, update the log tail to
652 * match the new minimum LSN in the AIL.
654 * This function takes the AIL lock once to execute the update operations on
655 * all the items in the array, and as such should not be called with the AIL
656 * lock held. As a result, once we have the AIL lock, we need to check each log
657 * item LSN to confirm it needs to be moved forward in the AIL.
659 * To optimise the insert operation, we delete all the items from the AIL in
660 * the first pass, moving them into a temporary list, then splice the temporary
661 * list into the correct position in the AIL. This avoids needing to do an
662 * insert operation on every item.
664 * This function must be called with the AIL lock held. The lock is dropped
665 * before returning.
