[PATCH 01/12] iomap: handle a post-direct I/O invalidate race in iomap_write_delalloc_release

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

 



When direct I/O completions invalidates the page cache it holds neither the
i_rwsem nor the invalidate_lock so it can be racing with
iomap_write_delalloc_release.  If the search for the end of the region that
contains data returns the start offset we hit such a race and just need to
look for the end of the newly created hole instead.
