The quilt patch titled Subject: ocfs2: dlmfs: don't clear USER_LOCK_ATTACHED when destroying lock has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was ocfs2-dlmfs-not-clear-user_lock_attached-when-destroy-lock.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Junxiao Bi <ocfs2-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: ocfs2: dlmfs: don't clear USER_LOCK_ATTACHED when destroying lock Date: Wed, 18 May 2022 16:52:23 -0700 The following function is the only place that checks USER_LOCK_ATTACHED. This flag is set when lock request is granted through user_ast() and only the following function will clear it. Checking of this flag here is to make sure ocfs2_dlm_unlock is not issued if this lock is never granted. For example, lock file is created and then get removed, open file never happens. Clearing the flag here is not necessary because this is the only function that checks it, if another flow is executing user_dlm_destroy_lock(), it will bail out at the beginning because of USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN and never check USER_LOCK_ATTACHED. Drop the clear, so we don't need take care of it for the following error handling patch. int user_dlm_destroy_lock(struct user_lock_res *lockres) { ... status = 0; if (!(lockres->l_flags & USER_LOCK_ATTACHED)) { spin_unlock(&lockres->l_lock); goto bail; } lockres->l_flags &= ~USER_LOCK_ATTACHED; lockres->l_flags |= USER_LOCK_BUSY; spin_unlock(&lockres->l_lock); status = ocfs2_dlm_unlock(conn, &lockres->l_lksb, DLM_LKF_VALBLK); if (status) { user_log_dlm_error("ocfs2_dlm_unlock", status, lockres); goto bail; } ... } V1 discussion with Joseph: https://lore.kernel.org/all/7b620c53-0c45-da2c-829e-26195cbe7d4e@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220518235224.87100-1-junxiao.bi@xxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Joseph Qi <joseph.qi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Mark Fasheh <mark@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Joel Becker <jlbec@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Changwei Ge <gechangwei@xxxxxxx> Cc: Gang He <ghe@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Jun Piao <piaojun@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/ocfs2/dlmfs/userdlm.c | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) --- a/fs/ocfs2/dlmfs/userdlm.c~ocfs2-dlmfs-not-clear-user_lock_attached-when-destroy-lock +++ a/fs/ocfs2/dlmfs/userdlm.c @@ -619,7 +619,6 @@ int user_dlm_destroy_lock(struct user_lo goto bail; } - lockres->l_flags &= ~USER_LOCK_ATTACHED; lockres->l_flags |= USER_LOCK_BUSY; spin_unlock(&lockres->l_lock); _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from ocfs2-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx are ocfs2-dlmfs-fix-error-handling-of-user_dlm_destroy_lock.patch
