Convert ext4 to use unlocked_ioctl v2 From: Andi Kleen I checked ext4_ioctl and it looked largely safe to not be used without BKL. So convert it over to unlocked_ioctl. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen v1->v2: drop BKL for online grow. resize.c seems to do enough locking Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o diff --git a/fs/ext4/dir.c b/fs/ext4/dir.c index 33888bb..d9c81ce 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/dir.c +++ b/fs/ext4/dir.c @@ -42,7 +42,7 @@ const struct file_operations ext4_dir_operations = { .llseek = generic_file_llseek, .read = generic_read_dir, .readdir = ext4_readdir, /* we take BKL. needed?*/ - .ioctl = ext4_ioctl, /* BKL held */ + .unlocked_ioctl = ext4_ioctl, #ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT .compat_ioctl = ext4_compat_ioctl, #endif diff --git a/fs/ext4/file.c b/fs/ext4/file.c index ac35ec5..20507a2 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/file.c +++ b/fs/ext4/file.c @@ -129,7 +129,7 @@ const struct file_operations ext4_file_operations = { .write = do_sync_write, .aio_read = generic_file_aio_read, .aio_write = ext4_file_write, - .ioctl = ext4_ioctl, + .unlocked_ioctl = ext4_ioctl, #ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT .compat_ioctl = ext4_compat_ioctl, #endif diff --git a/fs/ext4/ioctl.c b/fs/ext4/ioctl.c index f362025..2f7524f 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/ioctl.c +++ b/fs/ext4/ioctl.c @@ -17,9 +17,9 @@ #include #include -int ext4_ioctl (struct inode * inode, struct file * filp, unsigned int cmd, - unsigned long arg) +long ext4_ioctl(struct file *filp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg) { + struct inode *inode = filp->f_dentry->d_inode; struct ext4_inode_info *ei = EXT4_I(inode); unsigned int flags; unsigned short rsv_window_size; @@ -278,9 +278,6 @@ flags_err: #ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT long ext4_compat_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg) { - struct inode *inode = file->f_path.dentry->d_inode; - int ret; - /* These are just misnamed, they actually get/put from/to user an int */ switch (cmd) { case EXT4_IOC32_GETFLAGS: @@ -320,9 +317,6 @@ long ext4_compat_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg) default: return -ENOIOCTLCMD; } - lock_kernel(); - ret = ext4_ioctl(inode, file, cmd, (unsigned long) compat_ptr(arg)); - unlock_kernel(); - return ret; + return ext4_ioctl(file, cmd, (unsigned long) compat_ptr(arg)); } #endif diff --git a/include/linux/ext4_fs.h b/include/linux/ext4_fs.h index d203543..ba146b0 100644 --- a/include/linux/ext4_fs.h +++ b/include/linux/ext4_fs.h @@ -1124,8 +1124,7 @@ extern int ext4_get_block(struct inode *inode, sector_t iblock, struct buffer_head *bh_result, int create); /* ioctl.c */ -extern int ext4_ioctl (struct inode *, struct file *, unsigned int, - unsigned long); +extern long ext4_ioctl(struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long); extern long ext4_compat_ioctl (struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long); /* migrate.c */
