[PATCH 0/3] pnfs: fix pnfs lock inversion, try 2

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

 



Changes from previous version:
- fix PATCH 1 to avoid introducing race in pnfs_destroy_layout with LAYOUTGET
- refactor PATCH 3 per Benny's suggestion


These fix the incorrect lock order used throughout the pnfs code. We
first simplify the logic (and in the process squash a few bugs), then
rearrange the code so we never have to take both i_lock and cl_lock
simultaneously.
