>From f01b71d438aa8c3dc4c8eeb54c82595ecd93c5c3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2015 13:55:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: Fix races between buffered IO and collapse / insert range Current code implementing FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE and FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE is prone to races with buffered writes and page faults. If buffered write or write via mmap manages to squeeze between filemap_write_and_wait_range() and truncate_pagecache() in the fallocate implementations, the written data is simply discarded by truncate_pagecache() although it should have been shifted. Fix the problem by moving filemap_write_and_wait_range() call inside i_mutex and i_mmap_sem. That way we are protected against races with both buffered writes and page faults.
