All callers (rename, | rmdir) hold their own reference to the dentry. | | A quick audit of all file systems showed no relevant checks on the value | of d_count in vfs_rmdir/vfs_rename_dir paths. | | Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@xxxxxxxxxxxx> | Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> I removed the "inner" dput() which is called on emptry dir and sets error to zero. This looks like the same change in 64252c7 for vfs_rmdir() where dput() is removed from the path where we have dont_mount() and S_DEAD. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Could one of VFS ppl look at this an NACK/ACK it? Jessi: I've seen your patch after I had mine done. If you send me a sign-off-by for this, I will resend it with you as Author + SOB if you like once the VFS are fine with this. drivers/usb/core/inode.c | 1 - 1 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/usb/core/inode.c b/drivers/usb/core/inode.c index 1b125c2..3ef9308 100644 --- a/drivers/usb/core/inode.c +++ b/drivers/usb/core/inode.c @@ -381,7 +381,6 @@ static int usbfs_rmdir(struct inode *dir, struct dentry *dentry) dont_mount(dentry); drop_nlink(dentry->d_inode); drop_nlink(dentry->d_inode); - dput(dentry); inode->i_flags |= S_DEAD; drop_nlink(dir); error = 0; -- 1.7.4.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
