From 12e9b892002d9af057655d35b44db8ee9243b0dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Monakhov Date: Sun, 16 May 2010 22:00:00 -0400 Subject: ext4: Use bitops to read/modify i_flags in struct ext4_inode_info At several places we modify EXT4_I(inode)->i_flags without holding i_mutex (ext4_do_update_inode, ...). These modifications are racy and we can lose updates to i_flags. So convert handling of i_flags to use bitops which are atomic. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15792 Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" --- fs/ext4/file.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'fs/ext4/file.c') diff --git a/fs/ext4/file.c b/fs/ext4/file.c index d0776e410f34..5313ae4cda2d 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/file.c +++ b/fs/ext4/file.c @@ -66,7 +66,7 @@ ext4_file_write(struct kiocb *iocb, const struct iovec *iov, * is smaller than s_maxbytes, which is for extent-mapped files. */ - if (!(EXT4_I(inode)->i_flags & EXT4_EXTENTS_FL)) { + if (!(ext4_test_inode_flag(inode, EXT4_INODE_EXTENTS))) { struct ext4_sb_info *sbi = EXT4_SB(inode->i_sb); size_t length = iov_length(iov, nr_segs); -- cgit v1.2.1
