Subject: [PATCH 1/2] staging: zram: fix handle_pending_slot_free() and zram_reset_device() race
Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2013 02:12:50 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130910231250.GA2450@swordfish> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130910145802.GD19256@mwanda>

Dan Carpenter noted that handle_pending_slot_free() is racy with
zram_reset_device(). Take write init_lock in zram_slot_free(), thus
preventing any concurrent zram_slot_free(), zram_bvec_rw() or
zram_reset_device(). This also allows to safely check zram->init_done
in handle_pending_slot_free().

Initial intention was to minimze number of handle_pending_slot_free()
call from zram_bvec_rw(), which were slowing down READ requests due to
slot_free_lock spin lock. Jerome Marchand suggested to remove
handle_pending_slot_free() from zram_bvec_rw().
