| H A D | dm-snap.c | 76df1c65 Mon Mar 27 03:17:45 CST 2006 Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com> [PATCH] device-mapper snapshot: fix invalidation
When a snapshot becomes invalid, s->valid is set to 0. In this state, a
snapshot can no longer be accessed.
When s->lock is acquired, before doing anything else, s->valid must be checked
to ensure the snapshot remains valid.
This patch eliminates some races (that may cause panics) by adding some
missing checks. At the same time, some unnecessary levels of indentation are
removed and snapshot invalidation is moved into a single function that always
generates a device-mapper event.
