From 5842add2f3b519111b6401f3a35862bd00a3aa7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Adamson Date: Sun, 26 Mar 2006 01:37:26 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] VFS,fs/locks.c,NFSD4: add race_free posix_lock_file_conf() interface Lockd and the NFSv4 server both exercise a race condition where posix_test_lock() is called either before or after posix_lock_file() to deal with a denied lock request due to a conflicting lock. Remove the race condition for the NFSv4 server by adding a new conflicting lock parameter to __posix_lock_file() , changing the name to __posix_lock_file_conf(). Keep posix_lock_file() interface, add posix_lock_conf() interface, both call __posix_lock_file_conf().
