I've tested it locally. Sorry Jeff, your patch does not apply on 2.6.23-mm1. The 'struct file' removal from reiserfs_xattr_ function is already in -mm (make-reiserfs-stop-using-struct-file-for-internal.patch). The Dave's patch I was refering to is this one: ==== BEGIN ===== The bug is caused by reiserfs creating a special 'struct file' with a NULL vfsmount. /* Opens a file pointer to the attribute associated with inode */ static struct file *open_xa_file(const struct inode *inode, const char *name, int flags) { ... fp = dentry_open(xafile, NULL, O_RDWR); /* dentry_open dputs the dentry if it fails */ As Christoph just said, this is somewhat of a bandaid. But, it shouldn't hurt anything. --- lxc-dave/fs/file_table.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff -puN fs/open.c~fix-reiserfs-oops fs/open.c diff -puN fs/file_table.c~fix-reiserfs-oops fs/file_table.c --- lxc/fs/file_table.c~fix-reiserfs-oops 2007-09-27 13:32:20.000000000 -0700 +++ lxc-dave/fs/file_table.c 2007-09-27 13:33:11.000000000 -0700 @@ -236,7 +236,7 @@ void fastcall __fput(struct file *file) fops_put(file->f_op); if (file->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE) { put_write_access(inode); - if (!special_file(inode->i_mode)) + if (!special_file(inode->i_mode) && mnt) mnt_drop_write(mnt); } put_pid(file->f_owner.pid); diff -puN include/linux/mount.h~fix-reiserfs-oops include/linux/mount.h ==== END ==== Dave sent it privately to me...
