Subject: NFS: Avoid races between writebacks and truncation
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cd52ed35535ef443f08bf5cd3331d350272885b8;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

NFS: Avoid races between writebacks and truncation

Currently, there is no serialisation between NFS asynchronous writebacks
and truncation at the page level due to the fact that nfs_sync_inode()
cannot lock the pages that it is about to write out.

This means that it is possible to be flushing out data (and calling something
like set_page_writeback()) while the page cache is busy evicting the page.
Oops...

Use the hooks provided in try_to_release_page() to ensure that dirty pages
are always written back to storage before we evict them.
