From dead537dd8a1c9495322c1d6f7c780697f474af0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Paris Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2009 16:03:35 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] inotify: fix locking around inotify watching in the idr The are races around the idr storage of inotify watches. It's possible that a watch could be found from sys_inotify_rm_watch() in the idr, but it could be removed from the idr before that code does it's removal. Move the locking and the refcnt'ing so that these have to happen atomically. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris --- Reading git-format-patch failed
