Subject: ext4: serialize unlocked dio reads with truncate
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1c9114f9c0f10f58dd7e568a7152025af47b27e5;p=linux-beck.git

ext4: serialize unlocked dio reads with truncate

Current serialization will works only for DIO which holds
i_mutex, but nonlocked DIO following race is possible:

dio_nolock_read_task            truncate_task
				->ext4_setattr()
				 ->inode_dio_wait()
->ext4_ext_direct_IO
  ->ext4_ind_direct_IO
    ->__blockdev_direct_IO
      ->ext4_get_block
				 ->truncate_setsize()
				 ->ext4_truncate()
				 #alloc truncated blocks
				 #to other inode
      ->submit_io()
     #INFORMATION LEAK

In order to serialize with unlocked DIO reads we have to
rearrange wait sequence
1) update i_size first
2) if i_size about to be reduced wait for outstanding DIO requests
3) and only after that truncate inode blocks
