Subject: [PATCH] bug in radix_tree_delete
Date: Wed, 10 Nov 2004 15:03:42 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1100120622.7468.16.camel@localhost> (raw)

I was looking through the radix tree code and came across what I think
is a bug in radix_tree_delete.

	for (idx = 0; idx < RADIX_TREE_TAG_LONGS; idx++) {
		if (pathp[0].node->tags[tag][idx]) {
			tags[tag] = 1;
			nr_cleared_tags--;
			break;
		}
	}

The above loop should only be executed if tags[tag] is zero.  Otherwise,
when walking up the tree, we can decrement nr_cleared_tags twice or more
for the same value of tag, thus potentially exiting the outer loop too
early.

radix-tree: Ensure that nr_cleared_tags is only decremented once for each tag.
