[PATCH 4.9 21/77] Btrfs: fix btrfs_evict_inode to handle abnormal inodes correctly

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

 



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

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

From: Liu Bo <bo.li.liu@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit e8f1bc1493855e32b7a2a019decc3c353d94daf6 upstream.

This regression is introduced in
commit 3d48d9810de4 ("btrfs: Handle uninitialised inode eviction").

There are two problems,

a) it is ->destroy_inode() that does the final free on inode, not
   ->evict_inode(),
b) clear_inode() must be called before ->evict_inode() returns.

This could end up hitting BUG_ON(inode->i_state != (I_FREEING | I_CLEAR));
in evict() because I_CLEAR is set in clear_inode().

Fixes: commit 3d48d9810de4 ("btrfs: Handle uninitialised inode eviction")
