From c6f22517839f44e0358a3d1b5da206c427c3eda0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jaegeuk Kim Date: Thu, 2 Jun 2016 14:15:56 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: avoid data race between FI_DIRTY_INODE flag and update_inode FI_DIRTY_INODE flag is not covered by inode page lock, so it can be unset at any time like below. Thread #1 Thread #2 - lock_page(ipage) - update i_fields - update i_size/i_blocks/and so on - set FI_DIRTY_INODE - reset FI_DIRTY_INODE - set_page_dirty(ipage) In this case, we can lose the latest i_field information.
