[PATCH] fs: Add an explicit might_sleep() to iput

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: KP Singh <kpsingh@xxxxxxxxxx>

It is currently mentioned in the comments to the function that iput
might sleep when the inode is destroyed. Have it call might_sleep, as
dput already does.

Adding an explicity might_sleep() would help in quickly realizing that
iput is called from a place where sleeping is not allowed when
CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP is enabled as noticed in the dicussion:
