Subject: [PATCH] fs/ceph: Fix kernel oops due invalid pointer for kfree() in parse_longname()
Date: Sat, 20 Dec 2025 15:01:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251220140153.1523907-1-daniel@chaospixel.com> (raw)

This fixes a kernel oops when reading ceph snapshot directories (.snap),
for example by simply run `ls /mnt/my_ceph/.snap`.

The bug was introduced in commit:

bb80f7618832 - parse_longname(): strrchr() expects NUL-terminated string

str is guarded by __free(kfree), but advanced later for skipping
the initial '_' in snapshot names.
This patch removes the need for advancing the pointer so kfree()
could do proper memory cleanup.

Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220807
