From: Aditya Kali <adityakali@xxxxxxxxxx> In ovl_iterate() funciton, we were calling ovl_cache_get() on dentries marked OVL_IMPURE which are not refcounted. This results in triggering WARN_ON(cache->refcount <= 0). It can be reproduced by running the following command (on system with docker using overlay2 graph driver): docker run --rm drupal:8.5.4-fpm-alpine \ sh -c 'cd /var/www/html/vendor/symfony && chown -R www-data:www-data . && ls -l .' # dmesg shows [ 509.446081] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 4964 at fs/overlayfs/readdir.c:415 ovl_iterate+0x25b/0x270 [overlay] [ 509.455437] Modules linked in: veth ipt_MASQUERADE nf_conntrack_netlink nfnetlink xfrm_user xfrm_algo iptable_nat nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_defrag_ipv4 nf_nat_ipv4 xt_addrtype iptable_filter xt_conntrack nf_nat nf_conntrack libcrc32c br_netfilter bridge stp llc overlay sb_edac crct10dif_pclmul crc32_pclmul ghash_clmulni_intel pcbc aesni_intel aes_x86_64 crypto_simd cryptd evdev glue_helper pvpanic sg serio_raw snd_pcsp button snd_pcm snd_timer snd soundcore intel_rapl_perf ip_tables x_tables autofs4 ext4 crc32c_generic crc16 mbcache jbd2 fscrypto sd_mod virtio_scsi virtio_net net_failover scsi_mod failover crc32c_intel virtio_pci psmouse virtio_ring i2c_piix4 virtio [ 509.514107] CPU: 3 PID: 4964 Comm: ls Not tainted 4.18.0-rc4+ #1 [ 509.520217] Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011 [ 509.529545] RIP: 0010:ovl_iterate+0x25b/0x270 [overlay] [ 509.534899] Code: ff 89 44 24 04 e8 c5 f7 ff ff 4c 89 f7 e8 6d d0 9e df 4c 63 74 24 04 eb a2 49 8b 06 48 85 c0 74 09 48 83 c0 01 49 89 06 eb 91 <0f> 0b eb f3 44 89 f0 e9 9f fe ff ff 66 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 0f [ 509.553889] RSP: 0018:ffffa677c3f1fe40 EFLAGS: 00010246 [ 509.559228] RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff8acee1e99480 RCX: ffff8acf57973c40 [ 509.566483] RDX: ffffffff00000001 RSI: ffff8acee1ee8020 RDI: ffff8acee1e99480 [ 509.573754] RBP: ffffa677c3f1fed0 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 509.581000] R10: ffffa677c3f1fe80 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff8acf3aa7f4c0 [ 509.588239] R13: ffff8acf586b5a00 R14: ffff8acf3e02a240 R15: 0000000000000000 [ 509.595477] FS: 00007fe259795b88(0000) GS:ffff8acf7fcc0000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 509.603669] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 509.609527] CR2: 00007fe25954086a CR3: 0000000795746003 CR4: 00000000001606e0 [ 509.616787] DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 [ 509.624025] DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 [ 509.631263] Call Trace: [ 509.633832] iterate_dir+0x172/0x190 [ 509.637515] ksys_getdents64+0x9d/0x120 [ 509.641457] ? syscall_trace_enter+0x1ae/0x2c0 [ 509.646009] ? iterate_dir+0x190/0x190 [ 509.649864] ? __x64_sys_getdents64+0x16/0x20 [ 509.654331] __x64_sys_getdents64+0x16/0x20 [ 509.658618] do_syscall_64+0x55/0x100 [ 509.662386] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 [ 509.667545] RIP: 0033:0x7fe25952740e [ 509.671224] Code: 0f 05 eb 02 89 18 48 89 d0 5b c3 53 8b 47 14 49 89 f8 39 47 10 48 8d 77 20 7c 37 48 63 3f ba 00 08 00 00 b8 d9 00 00 00 0f 05 <85> c0 48 89 c3 7f 15 c1 e8 1f 74 3a 83 fb fe 74 35 f7 db e8 89 09 [ 509.690203] RSP: 002b:00007ffd0d30fc60 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 00000000000000d9 [ 509.697892] RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 00007fe25952740e [ 509.705132] RDX: 0000000000000800 RSI: 00007fe2597961e0 RDI: 0000000000000003 [ 509.712465] RBP: 0000000000000000 R08: 00007fe2597961c0 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 509.719702] R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 00005582eb183bc0 [ 509.726956] R13: 00007fe2597961c0 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000001 [ 509.734199] ---[ end trace 60478fe83a958f8f ]--- Also reported at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1539540.
