[PATCH 1/2] fs: dcache: Handle case-exact lookup in d_alloc_parallel

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

 



There is a soft hang caused by a deadlock in d_alloc_parallel which
waits up on lookups to finish for the dentries in the parent directory's
hash_table.
In case when d_add_ci is called from the fs layer's lookup functions,
the dentry being looked up is already in the hash table (created before
the fs lookup function gets called). We should not be processing the
same dentry that is being looked up, hence, in case of case-insensitive
filesystems we are making it a case-exact match to prevent this from
happening.
