From 3ef0f720e47e895b613b0305eb0a483e3ec11f23 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Wed, 14 May 2008 16:05:37 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: fix infinite loop in filemap_fault filemap_fault will go into an infinite loop if ->readpage() fails asynchronously. AFAICS the bug was introduced by this commit, which removed the wait after the final readpage: commit d00806b183152af6d24f46f0c33f14162ca1262a Author: Nick Piggin Date: Thu Jul 19 01:46:57 2007 -0700 mm: fix fault vs invalidate race for linear mappings Fix by reintroducing the wait_on_page_locked() after ->readpage() to make sure the page is up-to-date before jumping back to the beginning of the function. I've noticed this while testing nfs exporting on fuse. The patch fixes it.
