[PATCH 5.10 050/193] gfs2: fix an oops in gfs2_permission

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

 



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

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

From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 0abd1557e21c617bd13fc18f7725fc6363c05913 ]

In RCU mode, we might race with gfs2_evict_inode(), which zeroes
->i_gl.  Freeing of the object it points to is RCU-delayed, so
if we manage to fetch the pointer before it's been replaced with
NULL, we are fine.  Check if we'd fetched NULL and treat that
as "bail out and tell the caller to get out of RCU mode".
