GFS2/DLM does report the conflicting lock. It's just that when there is one, it's only overwriting some of the fields in the lock. The idea with this patch is to basically try and make dlm_posix_get() fill out the same fields as __locks_copy_lock() and make sure the rest are initialized. > > > > Fix this by making DLM reinitialize the file_lock before copying the > > fields from the conflicting lock. > > > > Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton > > --- > > fs/dlm/plock.c | 2 ++ > > 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/fs/dlm/plock.c b/fs/dlm/plock.c > > index eba87ff..ca46f11 100644 > > --- a/fs/dlm/plock.c > > +++ b/fs/dlm/plock.c > > @@ -304,7 +304,9 @@ int dlm_posix_get(dlm_lockspace_t *lockspace, u64 number, struct file *file, > > if (rv == -ENOENT) > > rv = 0; > > else if (rv > 0) { > > + locks_init_lock(fl); > > fl->fl_type = (op->info.ex) ?
