[PATCH] bcache: lock in btree_flush_write() to avoid races

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

 



From: Tang Junhui <tang.junhui@xxxxxxxxxx>

In btree_flush_write(), two places need to take a locker to
avoid races:

Firstly, we need take rcu read locker to protect the bucket_hash
traverse, since hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() must be called under
the protection of rcu read locker.

Secondly, we need take b->write_lock locker to protect journal
of the btree node, otherwise, the btree node may have been
written, and the journal have been assign to NULL.
