Subject: [PATCH] xfs: only SetPageUptodate if all buffers are uptodate
Date: Tue, 19 Apr 2011 06:40:28 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110419114028.7844.10303.stgit@nfs3> (raw)
xfs_vm_writepage and xfs_page_convert set a page uptodate if it is determined
that all of the buffer_heads attached to that page are uptodate.
Currently we use the flag variable 'uptodate'. The flag is initially set = 1
and it is cleared if a !buffer_uptodate buffer is encountered. In addition we
check that bh == head in order to ensure that all of the buffer_heads have been
checked. However, it is possible to break out of the buffer_head loop early
having processed only the first buffer. This leaves uptodate == 1 and bh ==
head, so the uptodate bit can be set on a page even if not all of the buffers
have been checked. This can lead to data corruption on platforms with > 1
buffer per page.
