3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Eric Paris <epa...@redhat.com> commit 848561d368751a1c0f679b9f045a02944506a801 upstream. Anders Blomdell noted in 2010 that Fanotify lost events and provided a test case. Eric Paris confirmed it was a bug and posted a fix to the list https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/linux.kernel/RrJfTfyW2BE but never applied it. Repeated attempts over time to actually get him to apply it have never had a reply from anyone who has raised it So apply it anyway Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <a...@linux.intel.com> Reported-by: Anders Blomdell <anders.blomd...@control.lth.se> Cc: Eric Paris <epa...@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <a...@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torva...@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <b...@decadent.org.uk> --- fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify.c b/fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify.c index f35794b..a506360 100644 --- a/fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify.c +++ b/fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify.c @@ -21,6 +21,7 @@ static bool should_merge(struct fsnotify_event *old, struct fsnotify_event *new) if ((old->path.mnt == new->path.mnt) && (old->path.dentry == new->path.dentry)) return true; + break; case (FSNOTIFY_EVENT_NONE): return true; default: -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
