In the current XFS read I/O path we check IS_DAX() in xfs_file_read_iter() to decide whether to do DAX I/O, direct I/O or buffered I/O. This check is done without holding the XFS_IOLOCK, though, which means that if we allow S_DAX to be manipulated via the inode flag we can run into this race: CPU 0 CPU 1 ----- ----- xfs_file_read_iter() IS_DAX() << returns false xfs_ioctl_setattr() xfs_ioctl_setattr_dax_invalidate() xfs_ilock(XFS_MMAPLOCK|XFS_IOLOCK) sets S_DAX releases XFS_MMAPLOCK and XFS_IOLOCK xfs_file_buffered_aio_read() does buffered I/O to DAX inode, death Fix this by ensuring that we only check S_DAX when we hold the XFS_IOLOCK in the read path.
