Subject: [PATCH] nfs: check a crash in nfs_lookup_revalidate
Date: Wed, 11 May 2011 17:03:25 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1305147805-5756-1-git-send-email-shawn.p.huang@gmail.com> (raw)

lookup_one_len() may call nfs_loopup_revalidate() with nd == NULL
indirectly, that causes the kernel crash.

RIP: 0010:[<ffffffffa0ba3b41>]  [<ffffffffa0ba3b41>]
nfs_lookup_revalidate+0x21/0x4a0 [nfs]
RSP: 0018:ffff88018f00fae8  EFLAGS: 00010286
