Subject: [PATCH 17/32] GFS2: Improve bug trap code in ->releasepage()
Date: Thu, 19 May 2011 09:47:12 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1305794847-3291-18-git-send-email-swhiteho@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1305794847-3291-1-git-send-email-swhiteho@redhat.com>

If the buffer is dirty or pinned, then as well as printing a
warning, we should also refuse to release the page in
question.

Currently this can occur if there is a race between mmap()ed
writers and O_DIRECT on the same file. With the addition of
->launder_page() in the future, we should be able to close
this gap.
