[PATCH 4/4] fs/inode.c: always take i_lock before calling filesystem's test() method

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

 



In insert_inode_locked4(), we call test() without i_lock held, it's
inconsistent with other places that calling test(). Though this
function is only used by reiserfs, in which case i_lock is unnecessary,
we should provide test() a consistent locking context.

This patch calls test() under the protection of i_lock in
insert_inode_locked4().
