[PATCH 6.6 026/124] xfs: remove a racy if_bytes check in xfs_reflink_end_cow_extent

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

 



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

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

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>

commit 86de848403abda05bf9c16dcdb6bef65a8d88c41 upstream.

Accessing if_bytes without the ilock is racy.  Remove the initial
if_bytes == 0 check in xfs_reflink_end_cow_extent and let
ext_iext_lookup_extent fail for this case after we've taken the ilock.
