We know how the system got here: someone called fsync() or sync(), and NFS_INO_LAYOUTCOMMIT was set. What we don't know is why the layout was freed before pnfs_layoutcommit_inode() was called. I suggest that we rather put a WARN_ON_ONCE(test_and_clear_bit(NFS_INO_LAYOUTCOMMIT, &nfsi->flags)); WARN_ON_ONCE(test_and_clear_bit(NFS_INO_LAYOUTCOMMITTING, &nfsi->flags)); inside pnfs_detach_layout_hdr(). That should stand a better chance of catching the sort of bug you found above. BTW: shouldn't pnfs_return_layout() always call pnfs_layoutcommit_inode()? -- Trond Myklebust Linux NFS client maintainer NetApp Trond.Myklebust@xxxxxxxxxx www.netapp.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
