[PATCH -v2 0/3] Fix various races in online resizing

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

 



I added __rcu decorations to s_group_desc, s_group_info and
s_flex_group, and this turned up quite a few places where we were
missing an rcu_dereference.  A number of them weren't strictly
necessary, but suppress warnings from the sparse code analysis tool
--- and sparse did find some places where the missing rcu_deference
could have led to some very hard to find bugs!

I folded the "introduce macro sbi_array_rcu_deref() to access rcu
protected fields" patch into the first patch, since we now need to use
the array in many more places.

  ext4: fix potential race between s_group_info online resizing and
    access
  ext4: fix potential race between s_flex_groups online resizing and
    access

  ext4: fix potential race between online resizing and write operations
