Subject: [PATCH] nfsd_copy_write_verifier: use read_seqbegin() rather than read_seqbegin_or_lock()
Date: Thu, 26 Oct 2023 16:50:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231026145018.GA19598@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231025163006.GA8279@redhat.com>

The usage of read_seqbegin_or_lock() in nfsd_copy_write_verifier()
is wrong. "seq" is always even and thus "or_lock" has no effect,
this code can never take ->writeverf_lock for writing.

I guess this is fine, nfsd_copy_write_verifier() just copies 8 bytes
and nfsd_reset_write_verifier() is supposed to be very rare operation
so we do not need the adaptive locking in this case.

Yet the code looks wrong and sub-optimal, it can use read_seqbegin()
without changing the behaviour.
