| |
Hi Linus,
Please pull this branch for 5.16-rc4 that fixes a race between a readonly remount process and other processes that hold a file IOLOCK on files that previously experienced copy on write, that could result in severe filesystem corruption if the filesystem is then remounted rw. I think this is fairly rare (since the only reliable reproducer I have that fits the second criteria is the experimental xfs_scrub program), but the race is clear, so we still need to fix this.
The branch merges cleanly against upstream as of a few minutes ago. Please let me know if anything else strange happens during the merge process.

---------------------------------------------------------------- Fixes for 5.16-rc4: - Fix a data corruption vector that can result from the ro remount process failing to clear all speculative preallocations from files and the rw remount process not noticing the incomplete cleanup.
