Subject: [PATCH] nfs: avoid race that crashes nfs_init_commit

Since the patch "NFS: Allow multiple commit requests in flight per file"
we can run multiple simultaneous commits on the same inode. This
introduced a race over collecting pages to commit that made it possible
to call nfs_init_commit() with an empty list - which causes crashes like
the one below.

The fix is to catch this race and avoid calling nfs_init_commit and
initiate_commit when there is no work to do.

Here is the crash:

Is there any way to do this without the code duplication in this function?

Thanks,

I can move the “if empty, then release reference” code out to a helper function that returns a bool, but both blocks will need to call it and continue if the list was empty (and ref released). This has to be called twice because the list it’s inspecting in the second block is built right before (pnfs_fetch_commit_bucket_list).

Not a huge reduction in line count, but I can do that if you’d prefer.

I’ll have to feed through Primary Data QA again, I’ve found this race somewhat difficult to reproduce.
