Subject: Re: [PATCH v9 14/14] xfs: test for realtime and reflink under the pNFS locks
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2026 22:02:24 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <sashiko-outbox-211884@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261112214604.67875-15-mason@kernel.org>

> A pNFS client can write to blocks that its file shares with another
> file, or that are no part of its file, if a LAYOUTGET races with a clone
> or with FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR.
> 
> xfs_fs_map_blocks() hands out no layout for a reflinked or a realtime
> inode, since the client writes in place and only knows the data device.
> But it tests for both before it takes the IOLOCK, and both flags are set
> under that lock:
> 
>     LAYOUTGET                           clone
>     =========                           =====
>                                         takes the IOLOCK
>                                         breaks the layouts
>     xfs_fs_map_blocks()
>       sees no reflink flag
> [ ... ]
> The fix used here is to test for both once the locks are held.
