Subject: [PATCH 00/21] mount: more bugfixes, trapped in the Black Lodge edition
Date: Fri, 02 Oct 2026 15:52:31 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261002-work-mount-fixes-4-v1-0-dd44b89d44ce@kernel.org> (raw)
More bugfixes from work in this area:
- unhash a dentry before detaching the mounts on it to avoid leaking
sensitive data
- don't reveal overmounted entries in refwalk
- refuse F_SET_RW_HINT on an immutable inode
- refuse an automount below a mount that is in no namespace
- handle mount locking for automounts correctly
- don't update the access time on nullfs
- never expire a locked mount
- keep the lock on a mount that a propagated copy is moved beneath
- decide the subtree check under mount_lock
- keep the private nullfs instance in knullfs
- nothing is mounted on or written through knullfs
- let a filesystem refuse fsnotify marks on its objects
- refuse file locks on nullfs
- refuse leases and delegations on nullfs
- take no inode lock on an immutable directory
