4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Chao Yu <chao@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 53edb549565f55ccd0bdf43be3d66ce4c2d48b28 ] As Al reported in link[1]: f2fs_rename() ... if (old_dir != new_dir && !whiteout) f2fs_set_link(old_inode, old_dir_entry, old_dir_page, new_dir); else f2fs_put_page(old_dir_page, 0); You want correct inumber in the ".." link. And cross-directory rename does move the source to new parent, even if you'd been asked to leave a whiteout in the old place.
