If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Tyler Hicks commit 7149f2558d5b5b988726662fe58b1c388337805b upstream. Fixes a regression caused by: 821f749 eCryptfs: Revert to a writethrough cache model That patch reverted some code (specifically, 32001d6f) that was necessary to properly handle open() -> mmap() -> close() -> dirty pages -> munmap(), because the lower file could be closed before the dirty pages are written out. Rather than reapplying 32001d6f, this approach is a better way of ensuring that the lower file is still open in order to handle writing out the dirty pages. It is called from ecryptfs_release(), while we have a lock on the lower file pointer, just before the lower file gets the final fput() and we overwrite the pointer. https://launchpad.net/bugs/1047261 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks Reported-by: Artemy Tregubenko Tested-by: Artemy Tregubenko Tested-by: Colin Ian King Signed-off-by: Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski --- fs/ecryptfs/main.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/fs/ecryptfs/main.c b/fs/ecryptfs/main.c index df217dc..c2a9c39 100644 --- a/fs/ecryptfs/main.c +++ b/fs/ecryptfs/main.c @@ -162,6 +162,7 @@ void ecryptfs_put_lower_file(struct inode *inode) inode_info = ecryptfs_inode_to_private(inode); if (atomic_dec_and_mutex_lock(&inode_info->lower_file_count, &inode_info->lower_file_mutex)) { + filemap_write_and_wait(inode->i_mapping); fput(inode_info->lower_file); inode_info->lower_file = NULL; mutex_unlock(&inode_info->lower_file_mutex); -- 1.7.9.5 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
