The reason I asked the query is that OCFS2_INODE_MAYBE_ORPHANED is being set at every dentry downconvert. Is this really necessary because every dentry downconvert does not turn into unlink? (I know it says maybe :/ ) Is it okay to set it when the open_lock fails or is it too late in the process? If another node has performed an unlink, it would need to get the open lock before it performs the inode wipe. So we should be safe that way? Is there anything incorrect in this design? -- Goldwyn _______________________________________________ Ocfs2-devel mailing list Ocfs2-devel@oss.oracle.com https://oss.oracle.com/mailman/listinfo/ocfs2-devel
