[PATCH] btrfs: Fix block generation verification race

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After the path is released, the generation number got from block
pointer is no long valid. The race may cause disk corruption, because
verify_parent_transid() calls clear_extent_buffer_uptodate() when
generation numbers mismatch.
