      UBIFS: use anonymous device · 7c83f5cb
      Artem Bityutskiy 提交于
      UBIFS has erroneuosly set 'sb->s_dev' to the UBI volume
      character device major/minor. This may lead to clashes
      if there is another FS mounted to a block device with
      the same major/minor numbers. User-space programs which
      use 'stat->st_dev' may get confused because of this.
      
      This problem was found by Al Viro. He also pointed the
      way to fix the problem - use 'set_anon_super()' and
      'kill_anon_super()' VFS helpers.

      UBIFS: return error if link and unlink race · 8b3884a8
      Hunter Adrian 提交于
      Consider a scenario when 'vfs_link(dirA/fileA)' and
      'vfs_unlink(dirA/fileA, dirB/fileB)' race. 'vfs_link()' does not
      lock 'dirA->i_mutex', so this is possible. Both of the functions
      lock 'fileA->i_mutex' though. Suppose 'vfs_unlink()' wins, and takes
      'fileA->i_mutex' mutex first. Suppose 'fileA->i_nlink' is 1. In this
      case 'ubifs_unlink()' will drop the last reference, and put 'inodeA'
      to the list of orphans. After this, 'vfs_link()' will link
      'dirB/fileB' to 'inodeA'. Thir is a problem because, for example,
      the subsequent 'vfs_unlink(dirB/fileB)' will add the same inode
      to the list of orphans.
