[PATCH 2/4] xfs: Fix possible use-after-free with AIO

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

 



Running AIO is pinning inode in memory using file reference. Once AIO
is completed using aio_complete(), file reference is put and inode can
be freed from memory. So we have to be sure that calling aio_complete()
is the last thing we do with the inode.
