3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------ From: Jeff Layton <jlay...@redhat.com> commit 80975d21aae2136ccae1ce914a1602dc1d8b0795 upstream. The loop around lookup_one_len doesn't handle the case where it might return a negative dentry, which can cause an oops on the next pass through the loop. Check for that and break out of the loop with an error of -ENOENT if there is one. Fixes the panic reported here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=727927 Reported-by: TR Bentley <h...@trarbentley.net> Reported-by: Iain Arnell <iarn...@gmail.com> Cc: Al Viro <v...@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlay...@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfre...@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gre...@suse.de> --- fs/cifs/cifsfs.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) --- a/fs/cifs/cifsfs.c +++ b/fs/cifs/cifsfs.c @@ -581,6 +581,10 @@ cifs_get_root(struct smb_vol *vol, struc mutex_unlock(&dir->i_mutex); dput(dentry); dentry = child; + if (!dentry->d_inode) { + dput(dentry); + dentry = ERR_PTR(-ENOENT); + } } while (!IS_ERR(dentry)); _FreeXid(xid); kfree(full_path); _______________________________________________ stable mailing list stable@linux.kernel.org http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/stable
