Before this patch, if gfs2_ail_empty_gl saw there was nothing on the ail list, it would return and not flush the log. The problem is that there could still be a revoke for the rgrp sitting on the sd_log_le_revoke list that's been recently taken off the ail list. But that revoke still needs to be written, and the rgrp_go_inval still needs to call log_flush_wait to ensure the revokes are all properly written to the journal before we relinquish control of the glock to another node. If we give the glock to another node before we have this knowledge, the node might crash and its journal replayed, in which case the missing revoke would allow the journal replay to replay the rgrp over top of the rgrp we already gave to another node, thus overwriting its changes and corrupting the file system. This patch makes gfs2_ail_empty_gl still call gfs2_log_flush rather than returning. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@redhat.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
