From 77304d2abac6101f7249754ffdd4421258877ab0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Snitzer Date: Mon, 8 Nov 2010 14:39:12 +0100 Subject: block: read i_size with i_size_read() Convert direct reads of an inode's i_size to using i_size_read(). i_size_{read,write} use a seqcount to protect reads from accessing incomple writes. Concurrent i_size_write()s require mutual exclussion to protect the seqcount that is used by i_size_{read,write}. But i_size_read() callers do not need to use additional locking.
