------------------------------------------------------ From: Ashish Samant ashish.samant@oracle.com Subject: ocfs2: fix locking for res->tracking and dlm->tracking_list
In dlm_init_lockres() we access and modify res->tracking and dlm->tracking_list without holding dlm->track_lock. This can cause list corruptions and can end up in kernel panic.
Fix this by locking res->tracking and dlm->tracking_list with dlm->track_lock instead of dlm->spinlock.
