[PATCH 1/8] nfs: follow direct I/O write locking convention

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

 



The generic callers of direct_IO lock i_mutex before doing a write. NFS
doesn't use the generic write code, so it doesn't follow this
convention. This is now a problem because the interface introduced for
swap-over-NFS calls direct_IO for a write without holding i_mutex, but
other implementations of direct_IO will expect to have it locked.
