Subject: [PATCH v4 2/3] afs: Fix dynamic root lookup DNS check
Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2023 13:45:29 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231221134558.1659214-3-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231221134558.1659214-1-dhowells@redhat.com>
In the afs dynamic root directory, the ->lookup() function does a DNS check
on the cell being asked for and if the DNS upcall reports an error it will
report an error back to userspace (typically ENOENT).
However, if a failed DNS upcall returns a new-style result, it will return
a valid result, with the status field set appropriately to indicate the
type of failure - and in that case, dns_query() doesn't return an error and
we let stat() complete with no error - which can cause confusion in
userspace as subsequent calls that trigger d_automount then fail with
ENOENT.
Fix this by checking the status result from a valid dns_query() and
returning an error if it indicates a failure.
Fixes: bbb4c4323a4d ("dns: Allow the dns resolver to retrieve a server set")
