[patch 3/5] fuse: fix race in llseek

From: Miklos Szeredi
Date: Fri Apr 25 2008 - 14:00:36 EST


From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxx>

Fuse doesn't use i_mutex to protect setting i_size, and so
generic_file_llseek() can be racy: it doesn't use i_size_read().

So do a fuse specific llseek method, which does use i_size_read().
