I even reworded the (too old!) commit message to fit with your patch :)) Your patch will not BUG() if status is junk, BUT if status uninitialized value is 0 and p9_client_lock_dotl then we'll return res=0 (success) and not unlock before returning. My patch makes sure we'll return -ENOLCK. Likewise, if we only apply my patch then a rogue server could BUG() a client, so we want your's anyway. -- Dominique Martinet, CEA -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
