ocfs2/dlm: Fix race in adding/removing lockres' to/from the tracking list
This patch adds a new lock, dlm->tracking_lock, to protect adding/removing lockres' to/from the dlm->tracking_list. We were previously using dlm->spinlock for the same, but that proved inadequate as we could be freeing a lockres from a context that did not hold that lock. As the new lock only protects this list, we can explicitly take it when removing the lockres from the tracking list. This bug was exposed when testing multiple processes concurrently flock() the same file. Signed-off-by: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
