Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2008 09:22:14 +0000 From: swhiteho@...hat.com To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, cluster-devel@...hat.com Cc: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@...hat.com> Subject: [PATCH 56/58] [GFS2] Fix page_mkwrite truncation race path From: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@...hat.com> There was a bug in the truncation/invalidation race path for ->page_mkwrite for gfs2. It ought to return 0 so that the effect is the same as if the page was truncated at any of the other points at which the page_lock is dropped. This will result in the restart of the whole page fault path. If it was due to a real truncation (as opposed to an invalidate because we let a glock go) then the ->fault path will pick that up when it gets called again.
