[PATCH 1/2] Revert "orangefs: remember count when reading."

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

 



->read_iter calls can race with each other and one or more ->flush calls.
Remove the the scheme to store the read count in the file private data
as is is completely racy and can cause use after free or double free
conditions.

This reverts commit c2549f8c7a28c00facaf911f700c4811cfd6f52b.
