[PATCH 02/10] vfs: check submounts and drop atomically

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

 



From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxx>

We check submounts before doing d_drop() on a non-empty directory dentry in
NFS (have_submounts()), but we do not exclude a racing mount.

 Process A: have_submounts() -> returns false
 Process B: mount() -> success
 Process A: d_drop()

This patch prepares the ground for the fix by doing the following
operations all under the same rename lock:

  have_submounts()
  shrink_dcache_parent()
  d_drop()

This is actually an optimization since have_submounts() and
shrink_dcache_parent() both traverse the same dentry tree separately.
