Subject: [PATCH] vfs: Don't exchange filenames unconditionally.
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2014 14:55:00 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1411037700-28966-1-git-send-email-sem@altlinux.org> (raw)

Only exchange source and destination filenames
if flags contain RENAME_EXCHANGE.
In case if executable file was running and replaced by
other file /proc/PID/exe should still show correct file name,
not the old name of the file by which it was replaced.

The scenario when this bug manifests itself was like this:
* ALT Linux uses rpm and start-stop-daemon;
* during a package upgrade rpm creates a temporary file
  for an executable to rename it upon successful unpacking;
* start-stop-daemon is run subsequently and it obtains
  the (nonexistant) temporary filename via /proc/PID/exe
  thus failing to identify the running process.
