Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ext4: mark fc as ineligible using an handle in ext4_xattr_set()
Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2024 10:38:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240919093848.2330-3-luis.henriques@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240919093848.2330-1-luis.henriques@linux.dev>

Calling ext4_fc_mark_ineligible() with a NULL handle is racy and may result
in a fast-commit being done before the filesystem is effectively marked as
ineligible.  This patch reduces the risk of this happening in function
ext4_xattr_set() by using an handle if one is available.
