Subject: [PATCH 6.18 504/675] afs: Fix afs_edit_dir_remove() to get, not find, block 0
Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2026 16:13:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260730141455.839076418@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260730141445.110192266@linuxfoundation.org>

6.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

commit 62d9853aa4ce6e9797b6949804891be14b219752 upstream.

Fix afs_edit_dir_remove() to use afs_dir_get_block() to get block 0 rather
than afs_dir_find_block() as the latter caches the found block in the
afs_dir_iter and may[*] switch out the page it's on if another
afs_dir_find_block() is done.  This parallels what afs_edit_dir_add() does.

[*] There's more than one block per page.

Fixes: a5b5beebcf96 ("afs: Use the contained hashtable to search a directory")
