From: Sunil Mushran Date: Mon, 6 Aug 2007 22:11:56 +0000 (-0700) Subject: ocfs2: Fix rename/extend race X-Git-Tag: v2.6.23-rc3~11^2~2 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=480214d71f1972756473415d31953647952400fb;p=linux-2.6 ocfs2: Fix rename/extend race If one process is extending a file while another is renaming it, there exists a window when rename could flush the old inode's stale i_size to disk. This patch recognizes the fact that rename is only updating the old inode's ctime, so it ensures only that value is flushed to disk.
