Like the below? This covers the d_revalidate for 9p, afs, coda,
hfs, ncpfs, proc, sysfs.
Note: jfs isn't susceptible to this problem, but the resolution
doesn't look like the other file systems, and from the comment
I'm not sure if the problem was really understood and if it's
doing the right thing:
static int jfs_ci_revalidate(struct dentry *dentry, struct nameidata *nd)
{
...
/*
* This may be nfsd (or something), anyway, we can't see the
* intent of this. So, since this can be for creation, drop it.
*/
if (!nd)
return 0;
/*
* Drop the negative dentry, in order to make sure to use the
* case sensitive name which is specified by user if this is
* for creation.
*/
if (nd->flags & (LOOKUP_CREATE | LOOKUP_RENAME_TARGET))
return 0;
...
}
Chris.
