| |
Hi all,
In the function dup_mmap() in kernel/fork.c,
file = tmp->vm_file; if (file) { struct inode *inode = file->f_dentry->d_inode; get_file(file); if(tmp->vm_flags & VM_DENYWRITE) atomic_dec(&inode->i_writecount);
After this piece of code, shouldn't there be : else atomic_inc(&inode->i_writecount);
as this is a read-write mapping ? Bye, Abhi. Linux Kernel Documentation Project http://freesoftware.fsf.org/lkdp
