[PATCH] coda: change locking order in coda_file_write_iter()

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

 



The coda host file is a backing file for the coda inode on a different
filesystem than the coda inode.

Change the locking order to take the coda inode lock before taking
the backing host file freeze protection, same as in ovl_write_iter()
and in network filesystems that use cachefiles.
