From: Chen Zhongjin <chenzhongjin@huawei.com> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.163 commit 740c537f52c1f54aff9094744483d1515c7c8b7b category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I6GCCV Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit 672e4268b2863d7e4978dfed29552b31c2f9bd4e upstream. ovl_dentry_revalidate_common() can be called in rcu-walk mode. As document said, "in rcu-walk mode, d_parent and d_inode should not be used without care". Check inode here to protect access under rcu-walk mode.
