s_fs_info and ->kill_sb revisited v2

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

 



Hi all,

this series is against the VFS vfs.super branch does two slightly
related things:

 - move closing of the external devices in ext4 and xfs from ->put_super
   into ->kill_sb so that this isn't done under s_umount which creates
   lock ordere reversal
 - move freeing the private dta in s_fs_info into ->kill_sb for file systems
   that pass it in through the fs_context, as otherwise we could leak it
   before fill_super is called (this is something new on the vfs.super
   branch because of the changed place where blkdev_get is called)

Changes since v1:
 - keep the invalidate_bdev call in XFS and actually document it
 - minor whitespace fixes
