From: Takashi Yano <[email protected]>
Previously, variable i_all_lf was allocated and released in several
functions: lf_setlock(), lf_clearlock(), and lf_getlock(), and was
used only temporarily as noted in flock.cc. This pattern easily leads
to bugs like those that occurred in flock.cc, such as:
lf_setlock() lf_clearlock()
| .
i_all_lf = tp.w_get() .
| .
+---------------------->+
|
i_all_lf = tp.wget()
|
do something
|
(release i_all_lf implicitly)
|
+<----------------------+
| .
accessing i_all_lf (may destroy tmp_pathbuf area)
| .
The similar problem also happens in multi-thread case.
Fix and prevent the bugs by converting i_all_lf to a pointer pointing
to a static array in the inode_t class. Given inodes are allocated on
the cygheap, reduce MAX_LOCKF_CNT by one so an inode_t fits into a 64K
chunk.
Avoid accessing the all locks list outside of locking and move
get_all_locks_list() call in lf_clearlock() to fhandler_base::lock()
to avoid calling the function twice.
