Re: [PATCH v3] loop: drop caches if offset or block_size are changed

From: Jaegeuk Kim
Date: Tue Dec 18 2018 - 17:41:44 EST


If we don't drop caches used in old offset or block_size, we can get old data
from new offset/block_size, which gives unexpected data to user.

For example, Martijn found a loopback bug in the below scenario.
1) LOOP_SET_FD loads first two pages on loop file
2) LOOP_SET_STATUS64 changes the offset on the loop file
3) mount is failed due to the cached pages having wrong superblock

v2 -> v3:
- avoid to submit IOs on frozen mq

Jens, how about this?

Thanks,
