[PATCH v6 16/18] nfsd/localio: use SRCU to dereference nn->nfsd_serv in nfsd_open_local_fh

Mike Snitzer
2024-06-19T20:40:55Z

Use nfsd_serv_get to SRCU deference nn->nfsd_serv and pass the
resulting svc_serv to nfsd_local_fakerqst_create, open the file handle
and then drop the reference using nfsd_serv_put at the end of
nfsd_open_local_fh.

Verified to fix an easy to hit crash that would occur if an nfsd
instance running in a container, with a localio client mounted, is
shutdown. Upon restart of the container and associated nfsd the client
would go on to crash due to NULL pointer dereference that occuured due
to the nfs client's localio attempting to nfsd_open_local_fh(), using
nn->nfsd_serv, without having a proper reference on nn->nfsd_serv.
