And before returning from open_cached_dir(),<br /> we put the last reference of the new @cfid because of<br /> !@cfid-&gt;has_lease.<br /> <br /> Besides the UAF, while running xfstests a lot of missed lease breaks<br /> have been noticed in tests that run several concurrent statfs(2) calls<br /> on those cached fids<br /> <br /> CIFS: VFS: \\w22-root1.gandalf.test No task to wake, unknown frame...<br /> CIFS: VFS: \\w22-root1.gandalf.test Cmd: 18 Err: 0x0 Flags: 0x1...<br /> CIFS: VFS: \\w22-root1.gandalf.test smb buf 00000000715bfe83 len 108<br /> CIFS: VFS: Dump pending requests:<br /> CIFS: VFS: \\w22-root1.gandalf.test No task to wake, unknown frame...<br /> CIFS: VFS: \\w22-root1.gandalf.test Cmd: 18 Err: 0x0 Flags: 0x1...<br /> CIFS: VFS: \\w22-root1.gandalf.test smb buf 000000005aa7316e len 108<br /> ...<br /> <br /> To fix both, in open_cached_dir() ensure that @cfid-&gt;has_lease is set<br /> right before sending out compounded request so that any potential<br /> lease break will be get processed by demultiplex thread while we&amp;#39;re<br /> still caching @cfid. And, if open failed for some reason, re-check<br /> @cfid-&gt;has_lease to decide whether or not put lease reference.
