Subject: [PATCH 3.10] aio: restore locking of ioctx list on removal
Date: Thu,  5 Dec 2013 11:09:02 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1386238142-21792-1-git-send-email-mguzik@redhat.com> (raw)

Commit 36f5588905c10a8c4568a210d601fe8c3c27e0f0
"aio: refcounting cleanup" resulted in ioctx_lock not being held
during ctx removal, leaving the list susceptible to corruptions.

In mainline kernel the issue went away as a side effect of
db446a08c23d5475e6b08c87acca79ebb20f283c "aio: convert the ioctx list to
table lookup v3".

Fix the problem by restoring appropriate locking.
