[PATCH] ext4: block direct I/O writes during ext4_truncate

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

 



Just as in ext4_punch_hole() it is important that we block DIO writes
while the truncate is proceeding, since during the overwriting DIO
write, we drop i_mutex, which means a truncate could start while the
Direct I/O operation is still in progress.
