From e956edd0523b6b48ed367c63b0c82d8f4c447a58 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Tue, 17 Oct 2006 00:10:12 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] fuse: fix dereferencing dentry parent There's no locking for ->d_revalidate, so fuse_dentry_revalidate() should use dget_parent() instead of simply dereferencing ->d_parent. Due to topology changes in the directory tree the parent could become negative or be destroyed while being used. There hasn't been any reports about this yet.
