3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx> commit 622cad1325e404598fe3b148c3fa640dbaabc235 upstream. The function ext4_update_i_disksize() is used in only one place, in the function mpage_map_and_submit_extent(). Move its code to simplify the code paths, and also move the call to ext4_mark_inode_dirty() into the i_data_sem's critical region, to be consistent with all of the other places where we update i_disksize. That way, we also keep the raw_inode's i_disksize protected, to avoid the following race: CPU #1 CPU #2 down_write(&i_data_sem) Modify i_disk_size up_write(&i_data_sem) down_write(&i_data_sem) Modify i_disk_size Copy i_disk_size to on-disk inode up_write(&i_data_sem) Copy i_disk_size to on-disk inode Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@xxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/ext4/ext4.h | 17 ----------------- fs/ext4/inode.c | 14 ++++++++++++-- 2 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-) --- a/fs/ext4/ext4.h +++ b/fs/ext4/ext4.h @@ -2462,23 +2462,6 @@ static inline void ext4_update_i_disksiz up_write(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_data_sem); } -/* - * Update i_disksize after writeback has been started.
