Subject: [ 03/26] autofs - remove autofs dentry mount check
Date: Thu,  9 May 2013 15:34:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130509223422.781223002@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130509223422.368544659@linuxfoundation.org>

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

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

From: David Jeffery <djeffery@redhat.com>

commit ce8a5dbdf9e709bdaf4618d7ef8cceb91e8adc69 upstream.

When checking if an autofs mount point is busy it isn't sufficient to
only check if it's a mount point.

For example, if the mount of an offset mountpoint in a tree is denied
for this host by its export and the dentry becomes a process working
directory the check incorrectly returns the mount as not in use at
expire.

This can happen since the default when mounting within a tree is
nostrict, which means ingnore mount fails on mounts within the tree and
continue.  The nostrict option is meant to allow mounting in this case.
