ceph: fix race condition where r_parent becomes stale before sending message
commit bec324f3 upstream. When the parent directory's i_rwsem is not locked, req->r_parent may become stale due to concurrent operations (e.g. rename) between dentry lookup and message creation. Validate that r_parent matches the encoded parent inode and update to the correct inode if a mismatch is detected. [ idryomov: folded a follow-up fix from Alex to drop extra reference from ceph_get_reply_dir() in ceph_fill_trace(): ceph_get_reply_dir() may return a different, referenced inode when r_parent is stale and the parent directory lock is not held. ceph_fill_trace() used that inode but failed to drop the reference when it differed from req->r_parent, leaking an inode reference. Keep the directory inode in a local variable and iput() it at function end if it does not match req->r_parent. ] Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by:Alex Markuze <amarkuze@redhat.com> Reviewed-by:
