The patch titled r-o-bind-mounts: fix WARN_ON has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was keep-track-of-mnt_writer-state-of-struct-file-fix-warn_on.patch This patch was dropped because it was folded into keep-track-of-mnt_writer-state-of-struct-file.patch The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: r-o-bind-mounts: fix WARN_ON From: Dave Hansen <haveblue@xxxxxxxxxx> On Tue, 2008-01-22 at 13:02 -0800, Andrew Morton wrote: > > On Tue, 22 Jan 2008 21:30:23 +0100 Mariusz Kozlowski <m.kozlowski@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hello, > > > > Issuing "sysrq-s sysrq-u" sequence causes these warnings on sparc64: > > > > ------------[ cut here ]------------ > > WARNING: at fs/file_table.c:49 __fput+0x1a8/0x1e0() > > Modules linked in: sg sr_mod cdrom > > Call Trace: > > [00000000004c9ac8] __fput+0x1b0/0x1e0 > > [00000000004c6978] filp_close+0x60/0x80 > > [00000000004c6a18] sys_close+0x80/0xe0 > > [00000000004062d4] linux_sparc_syscall32+0x3c/0x40 > > [0000000000012f1c] 0x12f24 > > ---[ end trace 6dbe14ff8ec57744 ]--- > > ------------[ cut here ]------------ ... > That's > > WARN_ON(f->f_mnt_write_state == FILE_MNT_WRITE_TAKEN); The emergency remount code forcibly removes FMODE_WRITE from filps. The r/o bind mount code notices that this was done without a proper mnt_drop_write() and properly gives a warning. This patch does a mnt_drop_write() and also notes in the filp that this was done to suppress any warning that would have otherwise been triggered. I also wonder if inode->i_writecount is made inconsistent by the emergency remount code. I guess it is, but the damage is limited to a single inode instead of being visible more globally like the mnt write count. Probably not really worth fixing. BTW, this wasn't just a sparc thing. I triggered it in about 3 seconds on a plain old x86 machine.
