[PATCH 5.15 011/565] ovl: Filter invalid inodes with missing lookup function

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

 



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

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

From: Vasiliy Kovalev <kovalev@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit c8b359dddb418c60df1a69beea01d1b3322bfe83 upstream.

Add a check to the ovl_dentry_weird() function to prevent the
processing of directory inodes that lack the lookup function.
This is important because such inodes can cause errors in overlayfs
when passed to the lowerstack.
