[PATCH 6.6 280/331] eventfs: Use simple_recursive_removal() to clean up dentries

[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>

commit 407c6726ca71b33330d2d6345d9ea7ebc02575e9 upstream.

Looking at how dentry is removed via the tracefs system, I found that
eventfs does not do everything that it did under tracefs. The tracefs
removal of a dentry calls simple_recursive_removal() that does a lot more
than a simple d_invalidate().

As it should be a requirement that any eventfs_inode that has a dentry, so
does its parent. When removing a eventfs_inode, if it has a dentry, a call
to simple_recursive_removal() on that dentry should clean up all the
dentries underneath it.

Add WARN_ON_ONCE() to check for the parent having a dentry if any children
do.
