From: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.162 commit 0cf0ce8fb5b10d669072345ea855de112d0e0a43 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I6BTWC Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=v... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 7d01ef7585c07afaf487759a48486228cd065726 ] Initialize them in set_nameidata() and make sure that terminate_walk() clears them once the pointers become potentially invalid (i.e. we leave RCU mode or drop them in non-RCU one). Currently we have "path_init() always initializes them and nobody accesses them outside of path_init()/terminate_walk() segments", which is asking for trouble. With that change we would have nd->path.{mnt,dentry} 1) always valid - NULL or pointing to currently allocated objects. 2) non-NULL while we are successfully walking 3) NULL when we are not walking at all 4) contributing to refcounts whenever non-NULL outside of RCU mode.
