[PATCH] fix ufs write vs. readpage race when writing into a hole

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

 



	Followup to UFS series - with the way we clear the new blocks (via
buffer cache, possibly on more than a page worth of file) we really should
not insert a reference to new block into inode block tree until after we'd
cleared it.
