OK. Let's leave that alone for now. Re deferred cancels - AFAICS, we *must* remove the sucker from ctx->active_reqs before dropping ->ctx_lock. As it is, you are creating a io_cancel()/io_cancel() race leading to double fput(). It's not that hard to fix; I can do that myself while applying your series (as described in previous posting - kiocb_cancel_locked() returning NULL or ERR_PTR() in non-deferred case and pointer to aio_kiocb removed from ->active_reqs in deferred one) or you could fix it in some other way and update your branch.
I think that is the right fix. Let me resend so that I can test the result first. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-aio' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
