Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Resolve mntput_no_expire issues.
Date: Wed, 12 May 2010 17:52:14 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1273711934.2856.22.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1273711544.2856.15.camel@localhost.localdomain>
In testing the mnt_count typo fix, I hit a few BUG_ON/WARN_ON messages
in the mntput_no_expire code.
The first issue was a race against the MNT_MOUNTED flag, where if after
the optimistic lock free check is done, someone changes the value, we
might BUG_ON after getting the lock. The fix is after getting the lock,
re-check the MNT_MOUNTED bit and drop the lock and try again if its
changed.
The second issue was a call to smp_processor_id() in add_mnt_count()
that was done while preemptable. This was missed in my earlier commit
070976b5b038218900648ea4cc88786d5dfcd58d.
