[PATCH 024/150] block: use i_size_write() in bd_set_size()

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

 



3.5.7.9 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Guo Chao <yan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit d646a02a9d44d1421f273ae3923d97b47b918176 upstream.

blkdev_ioctl(GETBLKSIZE) uses i_size_read() to read size of block device.
If we update block size directly, reader may see intermediate result in
some machines and configurations.  Use i_size_write() instead.
