Subject: [PATCH v3 3/3] smb/client: fix nlink of an overwritten open file
Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2026 04:37:04 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260805043704.304533-4-chenxiaosong@chenxiaosong.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260805043704.304533-1-chenxiaosong@chenxiaosong.com>
From: ChenXiaoSong <chenxiaosong@kylinos.cn>
Reproducer:
1. server: systemctl start ksmbd
2. client: mount with `posix` option
mount -t cifs -o posix //${server_ip}/export /mnt
3. client: touch /mnt/file1 /mnt/file2
4. client: C program: int fd = open("/mnt/file2", O_RDONLY);
5. client: C program: rename("/mnt/file1", "/mnt/file2");
6. client: C program: struct stat stbuf; fstat(fd, &stbuf);
stbuf.st_nlink is 1, should be 0
This patch fixes xfstests generic/035 when mounted with `posix` option.
