Subject: [PATCH 0/7] Loop device bug fix
Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2013 18:56:15 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1359111382-12654-1-git-send-email-yan@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

This patchset fix several loop device bugs.

Patch #1 fix non-atomic updating block device size. It also prepares for
a later dead lock patch.

Patch #2 is a trivial clean up about block device.

The rest of the patchset are loop device fix:

	#3 - fix a dead loop
	#4 - fix a race-like problem
	#5 - a little clean up based on #3 and #4
	#6 - fix a user triggable oops
	#7 - avoid loop device size being messed up by parameters from users


Guo Chao (7):
  block: use i_size_write() in bd_set_size()
  block: remove redundant check to bd_openers
  loopdev: fix a dead lock
  loopdev: update block device size in loop_set_status()
  loopdev: move common code into loop_figure_size()
  loopdev: remove an user triggable oops
  loopdev: ignore negative offset when calculate loop device size
