[PATCH v2 0/6] locks: better debugging and fix for setlk/close race handling

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

 



The first patch in this patchset fixes a very long-standing bug in the
handling of races between setlk and close. That one should be appropriate
for all stable kernels and should apply to most kernels as-is.

The second patch exempts OFD locks from setlk/close race handling since
they shouldn't need it anyway. The rest of the patches add some better
debugging for these problems and do a little function name cleanup.

I'm planning to go ahead and put these into linux-next today and send
them to Linus for the 4.5 merge, unless there are any objections...

Jeff Layton (6):
  locks: fix unlock when fcntl_setlk races with a close
  locks: don't check for race with close when setting OFD lock
  locks: sprinkle some tracepoints around the file locking code
  locks: pass inode pointer to locks_free_lock_context
  locks: prink more detail when there are leaked locks
  locks: rename __posix_lock_file to posix_lock_inode
