Hi all, Here is v2 of the xfs_free_eofblocks() i_size fix. Patch 1 is new and kills off the need_iolock parameter as suggested by Christoph. Patch 2 is also new and fixes a separate bug I ran into during testing where multiple threads crash into ENOSPC, run eofb scans in parallel and livelock against eachother because inode iolocks are held across entire eofb scans. Patch 3 is roughly the same as v1: serialize xfs_free_eofblocks() against file-extending async dio writes via inode_dio_wait(). Thoughts, reviews, flames appreciated. Brian v2: - Kill off the xfs_free_eofblocks() need_iolock parameter. All callers must acquire IOLOCK_EXCL. - Drop iolock across internal low free space scans to avoid livelock. v1: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-xfs/msg03437.html Brian Foster (3): xfs: pull up iolock from xfs_free_eofblocks() xfs: sync eofblocks scans under iolock are livelock prone xfs: fix eofblocks race with file extending async dio writes fs/xfs/xfs_bmap_util.c | 42 +++++++++++++++-------------------- fs/xfs/xfs_bmap_util.h | 3 +-- fs/xfs/xfs_file.c | 13 +++++++---- fs/xfs/xfs_icache.c | 59 +++++++++++++++----------------------------------- fs/xfs/xfs_icache.h | 2 -- fs/xfs/xfs_inode.c | 51 +++++++++++++++++++++++-------------------- 6 files changed, 73 insertions(+), 97 deletions(-) -- 2.7.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-xfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
