From 91b0abe36a7b2b3b02d7500925a5f8455334f0e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Weiner Date: Thu, 3 Apr 2014 14:47:49 -0700 Subject: mm + fs: store shadow entries in page cache Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon evicting the real page. As those pages are found from the LRU, an iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently. At this point, reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty. Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets under the tree lock before doing the final truncate. Reclaim will check for this flag before installing shadow pages.
