    eCryptfs: Copy up attributes of the lower target inode after rename · 8335eafc
    Tyler Hicks 提交于
    After calling into the lower filesystem to do a rename, the lower target
    inode's attributes were not copied up to the eCryptfs target inode. This
    resulted in the eCryptfs target inode staying around, rather than being
    evicted, because i_nlink was not updated for the eCryptfs inode. This
    also meant that eCryptfs didn't do the final iput() on the lower target
    inode so it stayed around, as well. This would result in a failure to
    free up space occupied by the target file in the rename() operation.
    Both target inodes would eventually be evicted when the eCryptfs
    filesystem was unmounted.
    
    This patch calls fsstack_copy_attr_all() after the lower filesystem
    does its ->rename() so that important inode attributes, such as i_nlink,
    are updated at the eCryptfs layer. ecryptfs_evict_inode() is now called
    and eCryptfs can drop its final reference on the lower inode.
