[PATCH] NFS: Ensure we revalidate attributes before using execute_ok()

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

 



Donald Buczek reports that NFS clients can also report incorrect
results for access() due to lack of revalidation of attributes
before calling execute_ok().
Looking closely, it seems chdir() is afflicted with the same problem.

Fix is to ensure we call nfs_revalidate_inode_rcu() or
nfs_revalidate_inode() as appropriate before deciding to trust
execute_ok().
