[PATCH 098/102] xfs: shutdown xfs_sync_worker before the log

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

 



From: Ben Myers <bpm@xxxxxxx>

Upstream commit: 8866fc6fa55e31b2bce931b7963ff16641b39dc7

Revert commit 1307bbd, which uses the s_umount semaphore to provide
exclusion between xfs_sync_worker and unmount, in favor of shutting down
the sync worker before freeing the log in xfs_log_unmount.  This is a
cleaner way of resolving the race between xfs_sync_worker and unmount
than using s_umount.
