| |
There is a deadlock between sb_internal lock (sb_start_intwrite()) and dquot related lock. It's because we call f2fs_truncate(), which eventually calls dquot_initialize(), while holding sb_internal lock. So, I called dquot_initialize() in advance to make the 2nd calling of it in f2fs_truncate() ineffective. This is similar with the thing in f2fs_evict_inode() in inode.c
Thanks,
