From 10ab88117d069a552a5efdb4b5fb1c087a948c63 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: alex chen Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2015 14:09:23 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] ocfs2: prune the dcache before deleting the dentry of directory In ocfs2_dentry_convert_worker, we should prune the dcache before deleting the dentry of directory, otherwise, in the following cases the inode of directory will still remain in orphan directory until the device being umounted. Mount point: /mnt/ocfs2 Node A Node B mkdir /mnt/ocfs2/testdir ocfs2_mkdir ->ocfs2_mknod ->ocfs2_dentry_attach_lock ->ocfs2_dentry_lock(dentry, 0) ... ... touch /mnt/ocfs2/testdir/testfile unlink /mnt/test/testdir/testfile rmdir /mnt/ocfs2/testdir ocfs2_unlink ->ocfs2_remote_dentry_delete ->ocfs2_dentry_lock(dentry, 1) ... ... ... ... ocfs2_downconvert_thread ->ocfs2_unblock_lock ->ocfs2_dentry_convert_worker ->ocfs2_find_local_alias ->dget_dlock ->d_delete Here the dentry can not be released because the children's dentry is negative but still exist. Finally, this inode will still remain in orphan directory until its children are destroyed. So before deleting dentry of directory, we should prune the dcache to remove unused children of the parent dentry by shrink_dcache_parent().
