Subject: [PATCH] ovl: nfs_export: Parse index inode's nlink when 'd_inode(lowerdentry)->i_nlink == 1'
Date: Fri, 6 Aug 2021 17:53:54 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210806095354.2336263-1-chengzhihao1@huawei.com> (raw)

For overlayfs mounted by "nfs_export=on", all files/directories will be
indexed regardless of whether 'nlink > 1' satisfies. Following process
may cause breaking hard links on copy up:

  mkdir low upper work merge
  touch low/file
  mount -t overlay over
    -oupperdir=upper,lowerdir=low,workdir=work,nfs_export=on merge
  chmod +x merge/file
  #  Now nlink of upper/file's correspoding index file equals to 2,
     and we have xattr "trusted.overlay.nlink=U-1" on upper/file
  echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
  # merge/file's nlink changes to 2

For nfs_export enabled overlayfs, don't ignore parsing index inode's nlink
when 'd_inode(lowerdentry)->i_nlink == 1'.

Fixes: f168f1098dd9038 ("ovl: add support for "nfs_export" configuration")
