Problem caused by source's vfsmount being unmounted but remains on the delayed unmount list. This happens when nfs42_ssc_open() return errors. Fixed by removing nfsd4_interssc_connect(), leave the vfsmount for the laundromat to unmount when idle time expires. We don't need to call nfs_do_sb_deactive when nfs42_ssc_open return errors since the file was not opened so nfs_server->active was not incremented. Same as in nfsd4_copy, if we fail to launch nfsd4_do_async_copy thread then there's no need to call nfs_do_sb_deactive Reported-by: Xingyuan Mo <hdthky0@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Dai Ngo <dai.ngo@xxxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Xingyuan Mo <hdthky0@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Ovidiu Panait <ovidiu.panait@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/nfsd/nfs4proc.c | 22 ++++++---------------- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) --- a/fs/nfsd/nfs4proc.c +++ b/fs/nfsd/nfs4proc.c @@ -1351,13 +1351,6 @@ out_err: return status; } -static void -nfsd4_interssc_disconnect(struct vfsmount *ss_mnt) -{ - nfs_do_sb_deactive(ss_mnt->mnt_sb); - mntput(ss_mnt); -} - /* * Verify COPY destination stateid. * @@ -1460,11 +1453,6 @@ nfsd4_cleanup_inter_ssc(struct vfsmount { } -static void -nfsd4_interssc_disconnect(struct vfsmount *ss_mnt) -{ -} - static struct file *nfs42_ssc_open(struct vfsmount *ss_mnt, struct nfs_fh *src_fh, nfs4_stateid *stateid) @@ -1622,14 +1610,14 @@ static int nfsd4_do_async_copy(void *dat copy->nf_src = kzalloc(sizeof(struct nfsd_file), GFP_KERNEL); if (!copy->nf_src) { copy->nfserr = nfserr_serverfault; - nfsd4_interssc_disconnect(copy->ss_mnt); + /* ss_mnt will be unmounted by the laundromat */ goto do_callback; } copy->nf_src->nf_file = nfs42_ssc_open(copy->ss_mnt, ©->c_fh, ©->stateid); if (IS_ERR(copy->nf_src->nf_file)) { copy->nfserr = nfserr_offload_denied; - nfsd4_interssc_disconnect(copy->ss_mnt); + /* ss_mnt will be unmounted by the laundromat */ goto do_callback; } } @@ -1714,8 +1702,10 @@ out_err: if (async_copy) cleanup_async_copy(async_copy); status = nfserrno(-ENOMEM); - if (!copy->cp_intra) - nfsd4_interssc_disconnect(copy->ss_mnt); + /* + * source's vfsmount of inter-copy will be unmounted + * by the laundromat + */ goto out; } Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from dai.ngo@xxxxxxxxxx are queue-5.15/nfsd-fix-use-after-free-in-__nfs42_ssc_open.patch
