      vfs: dcache: fix deadlock in tree traversal · 8110e16d
      Miklos Szeredi 提交于
      IBM reported a deadlock in select_parent().  This was found to be caused
      by taking rename_lock when already locked when restarting the tree
      traversal.
      
      There are two cases when the traversal needs to be restarted:
      
       1) concurrent d_move(); this can only happen when not already locked,
          since taking rename_lock protects against concurrent d_move().
      
       2) racing with final d_put() on child just at the moment of ascending
          to parent; rename_lock doesn't protect against this rare race, so it
          can happen when already locked.
      
      Because of case 2, we need to be able to handle restarting the traversal
      when rename_lock is already held.  This patch fixes all three callers of
      try_to_ascend().
      
      IBM reported that the deadlock is gone with this patch.
      
      [ I rewrote the patch to be smaller and just do the "goto again" if the
        lock was already held, but credit goes to Miklos for the real work.

      do_add_mount()/umount -l races · 156cacb1
      Al Viro 提交于
      normally we deal with lock_mount()/umount races by checking that
      mountpoint to be is still in our namespace after lock_mount() has
      been done.  However, do_add_mount() skips that check when called
      with MNT_SHRINKABLE in flags (i.e. from finish_automount()).  The
      reason is that ->mnt_ns may be a temporary namespace created exactly
      to contain automounts a-la NFS4 referral handling.  It's not the
      namespace of the caller, though, so check_mnt() would fail here.
      We still need to check that ->mnt_ns is non-NULL in that case,
      though.

      vfs: dcache: use DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED instead of DCACHE_DISCONNECTED in d_kill() · b161dfa6
      Miklos Szeredi 提交于
      IBM reported a soft lockup after applying the fix for the rename_lock
      deadlock.  Commit c83ce989 ("VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression
      in kernel 2.6.38") was found to be the culprit.
      
      The nfs sillyrename fix used DCACHE_DISCONNECTED to indicate that the
      dentry was killed.  This flag can be set on non-killed dentries too,
      which results in infinite retries when trying to traverse the dentry
      tree.
      
      This patch introduces a separate flag: DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED, which is
      only set in d_kill() and makes try_to_ascend() test only this flag.
      
      IBM reported successful test results with this patch.
