Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> f2fs: fix to shrink read extent node in batches<br /> <br /> We use rwlock to protect core structure data of extent tree during<br /> its shrink, however, if there is a huge number of extent nodes in<br /> extent tree, during shrink of extent tree, it may hold rwlock for<br /> a very long time, which may trigger kernel hang issue.<br /> <br /> This patch fixes to shrink read extent node in batches, so that,<br /> critical region of the rwlock can be shrunk to avoid its extreme<br /> long time hold.
