Subject: [PATCH 7.3.y] f2fs: fix to avoid potential reference count leak in do_garbage_collect()
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 20:07:38 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111010730.348274-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261107050512-failed-7.3-894ca8b85666@kernel.org>
From: Chao Yu <chao@kernel.org>
[ Upstream commit 894ca8b856668a82426dbd0a0042b61541a1a9ec ]
In do_garbage_collect(), we have reserved reference counts on summary cache
of all segments, once gc_thread encounter freezing, we need to release all
reference counts.
