From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Return-Path: Received: from mga06.intel.com (mga06.intel.com [134.134.136.31]) (using TLSv1.2 with cipher ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by ml01.01.org (Postfix) with ESMTPS id 73D02210E2A5C for ; Wed, 8 Aug 2018 10:25:56 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] ext4: Close race between direct IO and ext4_break_layouts() From: Dave Jiang Date: Wed, 08 Aug 2018 10:25:52 -0700 Message-ID: <153374910694.40645.17166196534680658204.stgit@djiang5-desk3.ch.intel.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: linux-nvdimm-bounces@lists.01.org Sender: "Linux-nvdimm" To: tytso@mit.edu, darrick.wong@oracle.com, jack@suse.cz, zwisler@kernel.org Cc: linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org, david@fromorbit.com, linux-xfs@vger.kernel.org, linux-fsdevel@vger.kernel.org, lczerner@redhat.com, linux-ext4@vger.kernel.org, hch@lst.de List-ID: From: Ross Zwisler If the refcount of a page is lowered between the time that it is returned by dax_busy_page() and when the refcount is again checked in ext4_break_layouts() => ___wait_var_event(), the waiting function ext4_wait_dax_page() will never be called. This means that ext4_break_layouts() will still have 'retry' set to false, so we'll stop looping and never check the refcount of other pages in this inode. Instead, always continue looping as long as dax_layout_busy_page() gives us a page which it found with an elevated refcount.
