[PATCH 1/2] cifs: during remount, make sure passwords are in sync

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Shyam Prasad N <sprasad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

We recently introduced a password2 field in both ses and ctx structs.
This was done so as to allow the client to rotate passwords for a mount
without any downtime. However, when the client transparently handles
password rotation, it can swap the values of the two password fields
in the ses struct, but not in smb3_fs_context struct that hangs off
cifs_sb. This can lead to a situation where a remount unintentionally
overwrites a working password in the ses struct.

In order to fix this, we first get the passwords in ctx struct
in-sync with ses struct, before replacing them with what the passwords
that could be passed as a part of remount.

Also, in order to avoid race condition between smb2_reconnect and
smb3_reconfigure, we make sure to lock session_mutex before changing
password and password2 fields of the ses structure.

Fixes: 35f834265e0d ("smb3: fix broken reconnect when password changing on the server by allowing password rotation")
