Use inode->i_lock to protect i_size_write(), else i_size_read() in generic_fillattr() may loop infinitely in read_seqcount_begin() when multiple processes invoke v9fs_vfs_getattr() or v9fs_vfs_getattr_dotl() simultaneously under 32-bit SMP environment, and a soft lockup will be triggered as show below: watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#5 stuck for 22s!

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
