------------------------------------------------------ From: Minchan Kim minchan@kernel.org Subject: mm: fs: fix lru_cache_disabled race in bh_lru
Check lru_cache_disabled under bh_lru_lock. Otherwise, it could introduce race below and it fails to migrate pages containing buffer_head.
CPU 0 CPU 1
bh_lru_install lru_cache_disable lru_cache_disabled = false atomic_inc(&lru_disable_count); invalidate_bh_lrus_cpu of CPU 0 bh_lru_lock __invalidate_bh_lrus bh_lru_unlock bh_lru_lock install the bh bh_lru_unlock
WHen this race happens a CMA allocation fails, which is critical for the workload which depends on CMA.
