[PATCH 6.6 595/603] eventfs: Check for NULL ef in eventfs_set_attr()

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

 



6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The top level events directory dentry does not have a d_fsdata set to a
eventfs_file pointer. This dentry is still passed to eventfs_set_attr().
It can not assume that the d_fsdata is set. Check for that.
