[PATCH 7/7] fs: Remove i_mapping_sem protection from .page_mkwrite handlers

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

 



Using i_mapping_sem in .page_mkwrite handlers is generally unnecessary
since these handlers do not create any new pages in the page cache. Thus
if the handler locks the page and it is still attached to appropriate
mapping, we are certain there cannot be truncate or hole punch in
progress past its page cache invalidation step (remember that a page
cannot be created in the page cache from the moment hole punch acquires
i_mapping_sem and starts invalidating page cache to the moment the
operation is finished and i_mapping_sem is released) and any page cache
invalidation will wait until we release the page lock. So just remove
i_mapping_sem usage from .page_mkwrite handlers.
