[PATCH review 3/4] vfs: Handle mounts whose parents are unreachable from their mountpoint

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

 



- In follup_up and follow_up_rcu don't follow up if the current
  mount's mountpoint can not reach the parent mount's root.

- In prepend_path and it's callers in the d_path family don't follow
  to the parent mount if the current mount's mountpoint can not reach
  the parent mount's root.
