Subject: [PATCH] ovl: fix recursive oi->lock in ovl_link()
Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2018 09:45:49 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181018064549.4121-1-amir73il@gmail.com> (raw)
linking a non-copied-up file into a non-copied-up parent results in
a nested call to mutex_lock_interruptible(&oi->lock). Fix this by
copying up target parent before ovl_nlink_start(), same as done
in ovl_rename().
~/unionmount-testsuite$ ./run --ov -s
~/unionmount-testsuite$ ln /mnt/a/foo100 /mnt/a/dir100/
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
--------------------------------------------
ln/1545 is trying to acquire lock:
00000000bcce7c4c (&ovl_i_lock_key[depth]){+.+.}, at:
ovl_copy_up_start+0x28/0x7d
but task is already holding lock:
0000000026d73d5b (&ovl_i_lock_key[depth]){+.+.}, at:
ovl_nlink_start+0x3c/0xc1
