[PATCH 5/5] NFS: Fix dentry verifier races

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

 



From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If the directory changed while we were revalidating the dentry, then
don't update the dentry verifier. There is no value in setting the
verifier to an older value, and we could end up overwriting a more up to
date verifier from a parallel revalidation.

Fixes: efeda80da38d ("NFSv4: Fix revalidation of dentries with delegations")
