Subject: [PATCH v2 10/54] fs: hold an i_obj_count reference while on the LRU list
Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2025 11:39:10 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f4cf75a75d4100f0a7a9d9a411fd28869dd41595.1756222465.git.josef@toxicpanda.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1756222464.git.josef@toxicpanda.com>
While on the LRU list we need to make sure the object itself does not
disappear, so hold an i_obj_count reference.
This is a little wonky currently as we're dropping the reference before
we call evict(), because currently we drop the last reference right
before we free the inode. This will be fixed in a future patch when the
freeing of the inode is moved under the control of the i_obj_count
reference.
