[PATCH] UDF: fix deadlock on inode being dropped

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

 



This patch prevents from deadlock on inode being dropped.
The deadlock is caused by inderect call of mark_inode_dirty()
within udf_drop_inode() but inode lock is already kept
by the kernel. So moving code from udf_drop_inode() to
udf_delete_inode() we save its functionality and avoid
deadlock.

Andrew the patch is over Jan's two patches you have dropped.
AFAIS a such code moving is quite safe but I'm waiting for
Jan's comments anyway.
